Yocheved Lifshitz, one of two hostages recently freed by Hamas, has described her ordeal after being kidnapped by the Palestinian militant group in the brazen October 7 attack, saying she “went through hell.”
With her daughter kneeling by the side of her wheelchair, the frail 85-year-old grandmother on Tuesday recalled the moment she was abducted by gunmen on motorbikes after militants broke into her home in the kibbutz Nir Oz.
“It was difficult but we will get through this,” Lifshitz told reporters at a news conference at the Tel Aviv hospital where she has been recovering since being freed.
This is the same people that kidnapped her and her husband. It’s hard to tell but not unheard of that Hamas treats hostages nicely, especially if they want to win the PR war.
Seems like she also said that they were bombed by Israeli forces several times while in Gaza. I’m afraid that the one killing the alive hostages now seems to be mostly Israel, but we’ll (as usual) have to wait and see.
I REALLLY hope their tunnel busting bomb did not trap any hostages down there and starve them alive.
Actually seems like Hamas released photos and names of several hostages who died in Israeli bombing. Not sure how that’s possible to confirm.
