Gaza - Saba:
Al-Qassam Brigades released a new video on Saturday evening of Israeli captive Abitar David inside a tunnel in the Gaza Strip.
The prisoner appeared in the video, which reached the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), in deteriorating health, showing clear signs of emaciation and malnutrition.
He said, "I haven't eaten in days, and our meager food consists of lentils and beans, and our captors are giving us what they can." He added, "Netanyahu has abandoned us, and everything we were raised on in Israel is a lie."
He continued, "I am digging my own grave because my body is weakening every day, and perhaps I will be buried here in the tunnel."
On Friday, al-Qassam Brigades broadcast a video of him watching archive footage from a previous prisoner exchange deal, when he was in good health. Recent photos of him appeared, showing him significantly reduced in weight, a striking contrast between his previous and current condition.
The video also featured parallel scenes of Palestinian children suffering from famine and malnutrition as a result of the tightened Israeli blockade and the denial of aid entry, a message al-Qassam Brigades wanted to convey about the shared suffering of prisoners and the residents of Gaza.
The video concluded with the phrase written in white on a black background: "They eat what we eat and drink what we drink."
