Jerusalem, Jun 24 (EFE) - Family members of three of the 116 hostages still held in the Gaza Strip 262 days after the Hamas attack on Israeli territory released a video Monday of the moment of the kidnapping of their loved ones on Oct. 7, 2023, and demanded that the Israeli government reach an agreement for their release.

The video, recorded by Hamas militia body cameras, shows captives Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23, Or Levy, 33, and Eliya Cohen, 26, forcibly taken from a bunker where they were hiding after fleeing the NOVA festival during the multiple Hamas attacks that left some 1,200 dead on Israeli soil.
