Abu Obaida, spokesman for the al-Qassam Brigades, said on Telegram that another female hostage was critically injured in the attack, attributing the information to the guards who had been holding the women captive.
The Israeli military said it was unable to confirm or deny the claim but that it was in touch with the family of the Israeli hostage that Hamas says was killed.
It also said it was studying footage of the alleged incident released by Hamas.
The Hamas spokesman did not provide any details about the identities of the two hostages.
