Last week, Al-Qassam announced they had lost contact with Israeli-American captive Eidan Alexander, stating the Israeli army had directly bombed his detention location.
The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas, broadcast a video clip that it said documented the operation of rescuing Israeli captives from a tunnel bombed by the occupation army several days ago.
The group announced that it would broadcast the details of the operation later.
The footage showed a number of Al-Qassam fighters digging inside a tunnel – parts of which appeared to have been buried and its entrance closed due to the bombing – as they removed the rubble to rescue those inside.
The clip included a call from one of the Al-Qassam members to an Israeli captive inside the tunnel, saying to him: “Can you hear me? Wait… wait… wait,” before they succeeded in opening the tunnel entrance, entering it, and extracting one of the captives who appeared to be in pain, saying: “My body hurts… I find it difficult to breathe.”
The footage also showed Al-Qassam members placing an oxygen mask on the rescued Israeli captive, while his features were not clearly visible.

The Brigades concluded the clip with the statement: “One of the rescue operations carried out by our fighters after the aircraft targeted the location where a number of enemy captives were held.”
In Tel Aviv, demonstrations calling for a ceasefire and the return of the captives continue, while the government says it will continue military operations and will control territories in the Gaza Strip.
In recent weeks, the resistance has released several videos of living captives demanding a ceasefire and their immediate return.
Last week, Al-Qassam announced they had lost contact with Israeli-American captive Eidan Alexander, stating the Israeli army had directly bombed his detention location. This came days after Alexander appeared and accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of attempting to kill the captives.
Israel reversed its stance on the ceasefire agreement, refusing to proceed to the second phase and complete its withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. It demanded Hamas release the remaining captives, a position supported by US President Donald Trump’s administration.

Many people will use this as propaganda to say that Hamas only did this to protect their ‘ bargaining chips ‘ . Or that it was actually them that bombed the area. The world is waking up to the lies coming out of ” Israel ” .
The prisoners of war have value to the Palestinian Resistance which is why they must keep them alive. Palestinian hostages have no value to the Israelis which is why they do not want to keep them alive.
And the Palestinians are not sadistic sicko psychopaths and their humanity means they keep prisoners alive.
This video report is worth more than all the reporting supporting the Gazan struggle for liberation! Israel totally genocidal: Hamas is a liberation movement or, and for the Gazan people. They have often shown humanity towards the Israeli captives even during the Oct 7 uprising. WE need to use the correct language in describing this military invasion by Israel.
People who’ve got a conscience know who the real human beings are: the Palestinians and their Resistance movements, and who the PSYCHOPATHIC BARBARIANS are: the illegal entity committing the genocide and the ones supporting it (including the ones who choose to look away).
Americans want to see that Edan Alexander is alive and will be coming home soon.
