Six Israeli hostages celebrated Hanukkah in a Gaza tunnel months before their deaths, new footage shows.
Newly released footage from December 11, 2025, shows six Israeli hostages—identified as Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Ori Danino, Alexander Lobanov, and Almog Sarusi—celebrating the first night of Hanukkah in a Gaza tunnel months before their deaths in August 2024.
The video, shared by the IDF and the Hostages and Missing Families Forum, captures the group lighting a menorah, singing traditional songs, and reciting the Shehecheyanu blessing.
The footage, filmed in a confined underground space likely operated by Hamas, offers a rare glimpse into their captivity and resilience.
It underscores the prolonged suffering endured by the hostages and their families, who have waited nearly 800 days for answers.
The release has drawn emotional responses from the Israeli public and international observers.
