Chanukah in Terror Tunnels: Footage of Jewish Hostages Lighting Candles Evokes the Holocaust—All Were Later Murdered by Hamas

Saturday, December 13, 2025 8:09
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The footage evokes the darkest echoes of Jewish history — Jews huddled in Nazi camps, clinging to faith under the shadow of annihilation. Deep beneath Gaza, Jewish hostages tried to light Chanukah candles inside Hamas terror tunnels, grasping for dignity in a place built to erase it. You can hear the terror in Carmel Gat’s voice as she endures captivity; she would later be murdered by Hamas, along with Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Alex Lubanov, Almog Sarusi, and Ori Danino. This was their last Hanukkah — a moment of light swallowed by deliberate cruelty. The parallels are impossible to ignore: Jews imprisoned underground, persecuted for who they are, ultimately murdered by those who dehumanized them. And yet, much of the world condemns Israel for fighting this evil. The footage is not just heartbreaking — it is a moral indictment of anyone who looks away, excuses the barbarism, or dares to call it “resistance.” May their memories be a blessing.

Heartbreaking, chilling, and horrific footage from beneath Gaza. And much of the world demonizes Israel for fighting this savagery. Awful.


Harrowing footage shows 6 hostages lighting Hanukkah candles 8 months before execution

Families of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Almog Sarusi, Ori Danino, and Alex Lobanov approve release of videos filmed by Hamas terrorists in Gaza tunnel, intended for propaganda, recovered by IDF

By TOI, Dec 13th, 2025

Harrowing footage of the six Israeli hostages murdered by Hamas terrorists in August 2024 was released Thursday night by their families after being aired on Israeli television, providing a uniquely extensive glimpse into what the hostages went through during their first months in Hamas captivity.

The videos included footage of the captives marking Hanukkah in December 2023, with the release of the clips coming days before the Jewish holiday begins this year. While the footage was filmed by Hamas terrorists for propaganda purposes, the material is unlike other clips published during the war that showed hostages reading statements evidently dictated by their captors.
