I24 News – Hamas should release Israeli hostages as they didn’t enter Gaza as soldiers, father of an Israeli captive shown on the recently released Hamas video, Sha’aban Al-Sayed, said on Wednesday during an interview for the Rundown evening program at i24NEWS.
“We knew nothing about his whereabouts and, all of a sudden, this video appeared. It made us happy, yet, with the video comes a message that Hisham is in a very difficult medical situation and they (Hamas) say to the state, ‘If you don’t pay the price, he will die there,'” Al-Sayed said, explaining his first reaction to the video, showing his son alive after seven years in captivity.
On Tuesday, Hamas published a video reportedly showing one of the two Israeli prisoners held by the Gaza-based terrorist group. The footage showed Hisham Al-Sayed in poor health condition, laying on a bed with the assistance of an oxygen tank.
“We have hospitals here in Israel, they should release him, because he is not a soldier… He entered Gaza because he is mentally ill, they know that. And we ask them to release him immediately and allow him to receive treatment,” the hostage’s father said.
Where is the world condemnation? World outcry?
