A video showing emaciated hostage Evyatar David, allegedly starved by Hamas, sparked outrage. His family released the footage after US envoy Steve Witkoff assured them of a comprehensive ceasefire deal, rejecting piecemeal agreements. The video depicts David's dire condition, with him stating he hasn't eaten for days and fears for his life. His family accuses Hamas of using him for propaganda, while Israel denies accusations of intentionally starving Gazans. Protests in Tel Aviv highlight the urgency for a resolution and the hostages' deteriorating health, with families comparing the situation to a "second Holocaust."
