The Palestinian Islamic Jihad has released a disturbing video on Thursday, showing Israeli hostage Rom Braslavski appearing “thin, limp, and in tears,” described as “broken” by the terror group, as noted by his distraught family.

In the six-minute clip, Braslavski, aged 21, appears ghostly and frail as he weeps. The terror group claimed the video was filmed just days before communication was lost with those holding him captive, according to The Times of Israel.

His family claimed ISJ “broke” Braslavski and is pleading that his life not be forgotten.

“They broke my boy. I want him home now,” his devastated mom Tami Braslavski told Ynet news. 

“I understand the extent of the beatings he is enduring. I know this because Rom is not someone who typically cries. If he is crying, it means they are mistreating him. Just look at him. Thin, limp, in tears. You can see all his bones.”

The video was not released to the public, but still images approved by the family show a gaunt Rom Braslavski with stubble and tears welling up in the dark circles beneath his eyes.

This is the second video the PIJ has released of Braslavski, previously issuing a scripted video in which the captive said he was experiencing “hell” and appeared visibly ill.

Braslavski’s family demanded a joint meeting with security chiefs and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, The Times of Israel reported.

They are also hoping his cause is not lost in the hearts of the public, which has been overwhelmed by images of starvation from the Gaza Strip.

“People are speaking a lot about what is happening in Gaza, about the hunger, and I ask all those who are speaking about hunger: Did you see our Rom? He doesn’t receive food, and he doesn’t receive medicine,” the family wrote in a statement issued by the Hostages and Missing Families Forum.

“He is simply forgotten there.”

In Gaza, food conditions have deteriorated into famine conditions, with water shortages also bringing the area to the verge of a “man-made” drought, according to the United Nations.

At least 48 Palestinians were reportedly killed by Israeli soldiers at an aid site while attempting to collect their food rations on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Israel estimates that there are still 20 living hostages trapped in Gaza and the bodies of up to 50 who perished while captive.

President Trump urged Hamas to free the remaining Israeli hostages and bring an end to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

“The fastest way to end the Humanitarian Crises in Gaza is for Hamas to SURRENDER AND RELEASE THE HOSTAGES!!!,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Thursday.

Trump’s Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff is set to touch down in Israel and visit aid sites with Israel ambassador Mike Huckabee.
