Hamas has released a video featuring Edan Alexander, a 20-year-old dual Israeli-American citizen held hostage in Gaza for over 420 days. The video, published on Hamas's Telegram channel, serves as proof of life and shows Alexander addressing President-elect Donald Trump, urging him to facilitate a hostage deal for his release. This comes amid renewed talks about a ceasefire and hostage deal. Alexander's family has authorized the video's release, highlighting the psychological warfare employed by Hamas. The video has stirred significant emotional responses and calls for action from various quarters, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has spoken with Alexander's family. The video also underscores the ongoing hostage crisis, with over 100 hostages, including seven Americans, still being held in Gaza.
