He had two brothers --Hasdrubal who commanded the Carthiginian armies in Spain while Hannibal was in the Roman mainland.

Mago (the youngest of his siblings) accompanied Hannibal in the war in Rome but left him for Carthage after the battle of Cannae. He was to return with reinforcements from Carthage, but this never happened. Carthage instead sent reinforcements to Hasdrubal in Spain.

Hannibal would never see his brothers alive again --Hasdrubal would lose Spain and dies attempting to join up with Hannibal. Mago dies of his wounds in Sicily when Hannibal is finally recalled to Carthage.
