Hamas released a video clip showing three hostages, who were kidnapped during the group's terror rampage on October 7th. One of the hostages, Daniel Aloni, directs an impassioned message to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, criticizing him for failing to prevent the attack and secure their release. It is unclear if the hostages were speaking willingly or under duress. Hamas has released only four of the hostages so far and claims that over 50 hostages have been killed by Israel's bombardment of the Gaza Strip. The Israeli government condemned the video as "cruel psychological propaganda" and vowed to bring all the kidnapped people home.
