'Keep waving': Hamas posts video of releasing Israeli hostages, shows giving them instructions

Hamas released a video early Sunday morning showing the 13 Israeli hostages being transferred by the terrorists to the Red Cross teams.

In the video, the terrorists are seen bringing food and water to the hostages, waving at them and helping them go toward the vehicles. It's even possible to hear the hostages say shukran (thank you in Arabic) to the terrorists.

The video release illustrates Hamas' attempt to present themselves as "humane." During the video, the terrorists can even be heard telling them to "keep waving."

However, it's not only Hamas trying to paint a distorted picture.

Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar has also joined the attempt to influence world public opinion.

After the 13 hostages entered Israel, Varadkar posted on X, formerly Twitter, an unbelievably misleading message: "This is a day of enormous joy and relief for Emily Hand and her family. An innocent child who was lost has now been found and returned, and we breathe a massive sigh of relief. Our prayers have been answered."

Varadkar prevented the ability to comment on the post.
