Footage recovered by the military and aired on Israel's Channel 12 provides a detailed look into the experiences of six Israeli hostages during their first months in captivity. The videos, filmed by their captors in late 2023 but not released publicly by the group, differ from previous propaganda clips, offering a more candid portrayal of the hostages' ordeal. The six hostages, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Alex Lobanov, Carmel Gat, and Almog Sarusi, were murdered in a tunnel in Rafah in August 2024. The discovery of these videos adds to the understanding of the hostages' suffering and the conditions they faced.
