After the Hamas terror group publishes a video showing signs of life from hostage Liri Albag, the families of the captives urge the public to join demonstrations tonight calling for their release.

“The sign of life from Liri is harsh and undeniable proof of urgency in bringing all the hostages home! Every day in Hamas’s hell in Gaza poses an immediate risk of death to the living hostages and endangers the ability to recover the fallen for proper burial,” the Hostage Families Forum says in a statement.

“The hostages’ families call on the public to join tonight’s rallies and protest vigils around the world and to cry out with them for their loved ones, trapped in the tunnels,” the statement says.

Albag’s family requested that details or images of the Hamas video not be shared.
