Yehuda, the father of hostage Nimrod Cohen, said in a statement alongside families of other hostages that he will soon release videos of his son in Hamas captivity. "Every time we hear a 'political official,' which is Netanyahu, talking about giving prizes to Hamas, we know we're doing the right thing. Because only pressure on Netanyahu from inside and outside will advance a deal. This is the only way my son Nimrod will be released. We expect to release videos of him in captivity soon," he said. He noted that "we were allowed to watch videos captured as spoils by the IDF a few weeks ago, and they told us they were checking the possibility of releasing them. The video is not from recent months, it's from more than a year ago. In the video, you can see him saying his name and that he is a resident of Rehovot."
