Hamas has released a video announcing the death of two Israeli hostages and claimed that they were killed by Israeli airstrikes.
The video showed a female hostage named in Israeli media as Noa Argamani, 26, speaking under duress, revealing that two men she was held captive with had been killed in captivity. It was not clear when or where the video was filmed and there was no independent confirmation of Hamas’s claims.
The three hostages were shown in a 37-second Hamas video released on Sunday in which the group urged the Israeli government to halt its aerial and ground offensive and bring about their release. The undated clip ended with the caption: “Tomorrow [Monday] we will inform you of their fate.”
In a statement released with the new video, Hamas’s armed wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam brigades, said the two men, believed to be Yossi Sharabi, 53, and Itay Svirsky, 38, had been killed in “the Zionist army’s bombing”.
Amazed to see some people actually believe what Hamas says.
Hamas is the government.
This whole ‘Hamas is evil incarnate’ thing is propaganda itself. Everyone hears Hamas and thinks militant.
Hamas is the government.
The pencil pusher ministry of health dude? Hamas.
The hospital administrator? Hamas
The non doctors without borders doctors? Hamas.
This is like calling every person that was a reservist in the IDF at the festival a combatant. It’s as much of a lie.
When was the last election?
Was less than half of the population alive than?
The population of Gaza has increased 100% in the last decade.
You keep responding with sentences that are literally not related to the questions asked.
Almost like you don’t have answers that don’t sound horrifically racist.
You have yet to tell me when the last election was that made Hamas the government.
17 Years ago.
Do you believe a government starving an undesirable population is genocide?
Hey @Rapidcreek you are answering others.
Why are you ignoring this question so hard?
I trust the released hostages that confirm the IDF cares not whom they kill.

You think it might be possible that if you are held hostage you might say what you are told to say?
Here is what the released hostages say.
