The armed wing of Hamas, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, released a video on May 3 showing what appeared to be an Israeli hostage injured in a strike on Gaza.

JERUSALEM - The armed wing of Hamas, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, released a video on May 3 showing what appeared to be an Israeli hostage injured in a strike on Gaza.

In the undated four-minute video, which AFP has not been able to verify, the hostage, wearing bandages on his head and left arm, spoke in Hebrew, implying he had been wounded in a recent Israeli bombardment.

AFP and Israeli media identified the hostage as Russian-Israeli Maxim Herkin, who turns 37 at the end of May. His family urged the media not to disseminate the video.

He referred to himself only as "Prisoner 24" in the footage and was not identified by Hamas.

He was shown lying on the ground and referred to Israel's Independence Day celebrations on May 1 as upcoming, suggesting that the video was filmed shortly beforehand.
