Hamas releases propaganda video showing hostages Keith Siegel and Omri Miran alive

The Hamas terror group has published a new propaganda video showing signs of life from hostages Keith Siegel, 64, and Omri Miran, 46.

The families of Siegel and Miran approve the video for publication.

In the edited three-minute-long video, Siegel and Miran identify themselves, speak to their families, and say they are hoping for a hostage deal that would see them and other hostages returned home.

The video is not dated, but Miran says he has been held captive for 202 days and Siegel mentions the Passover holiday, indicating the clips were filmed recently.

Siegel, a dual US citizen, was taken captive with his wife from their home in Kibbutz Kfar Aza on October 7. His wife Aviva Siegel was later released in the November deal. Miran was taken captive by Hamas terrorists from Kibbutz Nahal Oz during the onslaught.

Hamas has previously issued several similar videos of hostages it is holding, in what Israel says is deplorable psychological warfare.

The Hostages and Missing Families Forum says that the sign of life is proof of the need for the government “to do everything to approve a deal to return the hostages before Independence Day, for the living to be rehabilitated, and the murdered to be buried with dignity.”
