The video concludes with a message to Israeli settlers, "Your captives will not be released unless our prisoners are freed," reiterating their warning that the time for the Israeli captives held in Gaza is running out.

The release of this video follows a statement by al-Qassam spokesperson Abu Obeida, wherein where he stressed that the first victims of the massacre in Nuseirat were Israeli captives. He emphasized that while the Israeli occupation managed to recover some captives through horrific massacres, they also killed some in the process.

He warned that the operation posed a significant risk to the remaining captives and would negatively impact their conditions and lives.

The Hamas Resistance movement affirmed Saturday that the Israeli occupation army's announcement of the retrieval of several captives, after eight months of aggression in which it used all military, technological, and security means, and committed all kinds of crimes, from massacres to genocide, starvation, and siege, "will not change its strategic failure in the Gaza Strip."

The Israeli occupation forces launched on Saturday numerous airstrikes on the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported, adding that the intense bombardment resulted in dozens of casualties, with many martyrs and injured being brought to al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.

According to the correspondent, dozens of Israeli rockets targeted civilian homes in Nuseirat camp. Many women and children are among the casualties being transported to the al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital using animal-drawn carts and private vehicles due to the dire circumstances of the healthcare system.

According to Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza, an Israeli special force had infiltrated Nuseirat Camp. Upon the force's discovery by the Resistance, heavy confrontations ensued. According to our correspondent, it was the discovery of the force that led to this heavy Israeli shelling and the massacre in the camp.
