Hamas has released a video on Telegram on Monday showing the six recently slain hostages speaking into a camera, while also announcing that it will release their "last message to the world" before they were killed.
In the video, all six hostages whose bodies were found by the IDF on Sunday are seen confirming their identities before cutting to a still frame threatening to release their "last messages."
The video ends with a threat to release the message in the coming hours.

Hamas: "we treat hostages good, we are not terrorists" also Hamas: "here are the last messages of hostages we executed" *something that terrorists tend to do*
