Hamas releases video of hostages in Gaza City as Israeli military advances

Hamas released the video as psychological warfare to influence Israeli public opinion amid intensified military operations, showing two hostages alive after nearly two years in captivity.

  • On September 5, 2025, Hamas released a video showing hostages, including Guy Gilboa Dalal, alive in Gaza City amid an Israeli military offensive.
  • The video follows the October 7, 2023, Hamas cross-border raid during which 251 hostages, including 22-year-old Gilboa Dalal abducted from Nova music festival, were seized.
  • Gilboa Dalal appears riding in a vehicle filmed on August 28, 2025, meeting another captive, while Israel controls about 40% of Gaza City amid severe fighting and humanitarian crisis.
  • Israeli officials say Hamas killed 1,200 people during the raid, and the conflict has killed over 64,000 Palestinians with tens of thousands of reservists called up for the Israeli operation.
  • The video release intensifies calls for ceasefire negotiations as Israel demands hostage release and Hamas disarmament, while families cling to hope amid uncertainty about hostages’ fate.
