"Please! Bring us back!": New Hamas Hostage Video Shows Guy Gilboa-Dalal Begging For His Life | WATCH

In a poignant and carefully edited video clip released with the family's consent, Israeli hostage Guy Gilboa Dalal delivers a desperate appeal from captivity in Gaza. The footage, extracted from a longer propaganda video produced by the Hamas terror organization, captures Dalal's raw plea for freedom amid the ongoing psychological warfare waged by his captors.

The brief segment begins with Dalal introducing himself and noting the date of filming, all while seated in a moving vehicle navigating the bustling streets of Gaza City. Surrounded by passersby, he appears composed yet visibly strained, a stark reminder of the perilous environment in which hostages are held.

Moments later, Dalal turns directly to the camera, his voice breaking with emotion: "This is all we want. We want to return to our families. Please! Bring us back."

The Dalal family shared a statement accompanying the release: "We've received a sign of life from our Guy after half a year since the previous video, where he was seen with Evyatar David watching their friends being released. Guy, Alon, and other hostages have been transferred to Gaza, and we fear greatly for their lives. We must bring them home."

Further into the original footage, not included in the public release, Dalal is shown meeting fellow hostage Alon Ohel. This marks the first confirmed sign of life from Ohel since his abduction, offering a glimmer of hope amid the uncertainty surrounding the fates of those still in Hamas custody.

The video was recorded over a week ago, prior to the reported elimination of Abu Obaida, the notorious spokesman for Hamas's military wing. During that period, intelligence reports indicated that Abu Obaida had devised a strategy to derail an anticipated Israeli military operation aimed at retaking Gaza City. His plan reportedly relied heavily on propaganda videos like this one to sow division and pressure international opinion. Despite his death, it appears the scheme has moved forward, proving the resilience of Hamas's media apparatus even in the face of targeted strikes.

This release comes against the backdrop of escalating tensions, with Hamas continuing to use hostages as pawns in a broader campaign of psychological terror. Families of the abducted have long advocated for transparency in sharing such materials, balancing the need to humanize their loved ones with the risk of amplifying terrorist messaging. Dalal's plea echoes the sentiments of some 20 living hostages (and 28 bodies of slain hostages) still believed to be held in Gaza, many enduring months of isolation and hardship.

As negotiations for a potential ceasefire and hostage deal remain stalled, voices from across Israeli society are calling for urgent action. "These videos are a double-edged sword," notes a security analyst familiar with the situation. "They provide proof of life but also serve Hamas's agenda. The key is in how families and authorities control the narrative."

For now, the Dalal family's decision to share this edited clip serves as a powerful reminder of the personal toll of the conflict. It humanizes the statistics, turning abstract numbers into faces and voices begging for resolution. As one family member put it, "We just want this to end, for Guy, for all of them."
