[30/ November/2024]

Gaza-Saba:

The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas, broadcast on Saturday evening a video clip of a Zionist prisoner in the Gaza Strip, who holds American citizenship.

The Zionist prisoner of the resistance said in his message: "Every day we spend here feels like forever, and the pain inside us is growing day by day." He appeared to cry during a message to him "before it's too late."

In his letter, Idan Alexander stated that he had been held captive by Hamas in the Gaza Strip for 420 days. Addressing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he expressed frustration with Netanyahu's recent speech about allocating a financial reward to anyone who provides information about prisoners in Gaza.

"I heard you talking to the people of Israel on television, and I'm very disappointed, I heard you announcing five million dollars for those who bring us back alive," he said in his message to Netanyahu.

"The prime minister is supposed to protect his people and soldiers and you neglected us, our guards informed us of the new instructions in case the army reached us," he said.

"We are scared and we die a thousand times every day and no one feels us." Addressing the settlers: "Don't neglect us, we want to go home in full mind; fear and isolation are killing us, please don't forget us."

"It is unreasonable to pay for the government's mistakes." He called on settlers to demonstrate daily to pressure Netanyahu's government and "put an end to the nightmare we are experiencing."

In his letter to newly elected US President Donald Trump, Idan said, "He is a citizen of the United States, currently detained in the Gaza Strip.

He called on Trump to use his influence as "president of the United States" and all avenues to negotiate a prisoner exchange deal. "Every day we spend here feels like forever and the pain inside us grows daily," he said.

He also called on President Trump "not to make the same mistake that Joe Biden made by sending weapons (to the occupation forces) and imposing a siege that kills prisoners." "I don't want to end up being killed like American citizen Hirsch."
