A group of hostage families have released an AI-generated Hamas hostage propaganda video featuring Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s son Yair.

“My life is in danger because of the IDF bombing,” Yair Netanyahu can be heard saying in the AI-generated video. “I see the polls here from all the channels – a majority of the country wants a deal. I am asking you, mom and dad — let me go. Only you can. I miss you and Avner, too, and I want to go home.”

“If their child had been kidnapped, our children would have been home already,” reads a caption at the end of the video.

The video was released by the Life Forum — a subset of hostage families who have been particularly critical of the government’s handling of the hostage crisis.
