IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari labels Hamas’s latest propaganda video showing three Israeli hostages as “atrocious terror.”
“It shows the cruelty of Hamas against elderly civilians, innocents, who require medical attention. The world must work to allow medical aid and to verify their conditions,” Hagari says in an evening press conference.
“Our hearts are with the hostages and their families at every moment,” he says.
“Haim, Yoram, and Amiram, I hope you can hear me this evening. You should know that we are doing everything to return you home safely. We will not rest until you return,” Hagari adds.
