    Instead of “forced to reveal fate in sick video”

    It should say what that fate is and, of course, provide an embedded video.

    Edit after clicking article: No video, just some guy talking over images.

    Downvoted for sensationalism.

      For some comparison, here are the headlines from BBC:

      “Israel Gaza war: Hamas video claims to show dead hostages”

      … and Times of Israel:

      “Hamas airs propaganda clip of hostages Noa Argamani, Yossi Sharabi, Itay Svirsky”

      The Messenger’s headline is trash. It’s so sensationalized that I don’t even know what it’s talking about.

      ? The article clearly states, well, what the claim is.

      The three of them were in a building bombed by the IDF, one died.

      Another died in a later airstrike.

      True? Seems unlikely given the source of the video and appearance if duress.

        Eh. True or not, but Israel strikes without much care and Hamas is known to use hostages as shields. So I wouldn’t call it unlikely, just contextually kinda irrelevant. It’s a shit show and both sides try to get brownie points / make the other one look more inhumane than the other.
