Israeli media identified the pair in the undated video, released by the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, as Elkana Bohbot and Yosef Haim Ohana.
In Gaza, the civil defence agency said Saturday that five people were killed in an Israeli strike on a tent in Gaza City, all members of a single family, according to relatives.
"Three children, their mother and her husband were sleeping inside a tent and were bombed by an (Israeli) occupation aircraft," family member Omar Abu al-Kass told AFP.
The strikes came "without warning and without having done anything wrong," added Abu al-Kass, who said he was the children's maternal grandfather.
"Five martyrs and wounded in an (Israeli) occupation air strike on a tent in the Sabra neighbourhood" of Gaza City, civil defence spokesman Mahmoud Bassal told AFP.
The Israeli army, which resumed its war on Gaza on March 18, ending a two-month truce, did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the strike.
The Israeli war on Gaza erupted in October 2023, killing at least 52,787 Palestinians, mostly civilians, according to figures from the Hamas-run territory's health ministry, which the United Nations considers reliable.
