Hamas released a new video showing hostage Guy Gilboa-Dalal alongside a second captive, a move Israeli officials describe as part of the group’s ongoing psychological warfare. The footage, said to have been filmed recently, depicts the hostages being moved within Gaza City and references additional captives believed to be held there.

Relatives of the hostages expressed a painful mix of relief and renewed anguish at seeing signs of life while noting deep concern for their loved ones’ safety. The clip was circulated across social media channels and drew calls for intensified efforts to bring the remaining captives home.

Israel’s leadership has condemned the tactic as cruel propaganda, stressing that the goal remains the safe return of all hostages and the dismantling of the terrorist apparatus responsible for their abductions. The episode again highlights the human cost at the heart of the confrontation and the urgency of sustained rescue and negotiation efforts.
