HAMAS has released a sick video of a hostage begging for release as the terror group threatens “time is running out”.
Elkana Bohbot, 36, has been held captive for 540 days by the militants and can be seen pleading to return to his son in the new clip.

The propaganda clip, titled ‘time is running out’, is the second to be published of Bohbot in just five days by Hamas after Israel broke a ceasefire and renewed its war.
The terror group wants a ceasefire reached in January to go back into effect and negotiations are ongoing to get another truce.
Israeli strikes have killed hundreds of Palestinians, and Tel Aviv has allowed no food, fuel or humanitarian aid to enter for four weeks.
The clip shows a clearly emotional Bohbot speaking to a camera and addressing Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu.
He said: “I am the one who asked to do these videos. Hamas did not tell me to make these videos. This is not psychological warfare.”
“The real psychological warfare is what is going on inside my head, every morning when I wake up without my son and my wife… it’s screwing me up, it’s making me crazy!”
Bohbot pleaded: “Do you not understand? I want to get out of here! I miss my wife, my son. Everyone. My family, get me out of here!”
His family approved publication of the video in the press and issued a statement saying: “We have nothing to add to what Elkana cried out for.”
Bohbot was kidnapped from the Nova music festival on October 7 when thousands of terrorists streamed across the border and killed 1,200 innocent Israelis.
He was featured in another propaganda clip released by Hamas just five days ago which featured another hostage – Yosef-Haim Ohana.
Some 59 hostages remain in Gaza after many have been switched in prisoner swaps or died while being held captive by the terror group.
Hamas is desperate for peace after Israel broke the ceasefire and began bombing Gaza again.
Israel and the group were set to begin negotiating the second round of hostage releases in the ceasefire deal, but Israel had other plans.
Brave Palestinians protested against the goons earlier this week chanting “Hamas out!” and “Hamas are terrorists”.

Extraordinary footage showed demonstrators carrying banners bearing the slogan “We want to live in peace” and “Stop the War” on Tuesday.
Israel’s offensive has killed over 50,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants in its tally.
Israel says it has killed around 20,000 militants, without providing evidence.
Israel’s bombardment and ground operations have destroyed vast areas of Gaza and at their height displaced around 90 per cent of the population.
The protests come as thousands massed at anti-government demonstrations in Israel recently.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday accused the opposition of fuelling “anarchy” in response to the protests against his leadership.
