The Al-Qassam Brigades published a video clip containing a message sent by a number of Israeli prisoners to the Israeli government, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

An Israeli prisoner says in the video clip, addressing Netanyahu: “We have been in captivity by Hamas for 23 days. Yesterday, I was at the press conference with the family of the kidnapped.”

She added, "We know that there was supposed to be a ceasefire, and you were supposed to release us."

She said, “However, we are suffering from your political, security and military failure, because of the failures you caused on October 7, because no soldier was in the place and no one came to us, and no one defended here... We are citizens who pay taxes to the State of Israel.” And now we are in captivity. You are killing us. Do you want to kill us all? You want the army to kill us. Isn’t it enough that you slaughtered everyone? Isn’t it enough for you that there were Israeli citizens killed?

She said at the end of the video: “Release us now, release their citizens and prisoners now (meaning the Palestinian prisoners), release us, release everyone, we deserve to return to our families now now now..”
