Survivors tell – Freed hostage: ‘Thought they were going to lynch us’

Date:

Since the start of the six-day ceasefire, three groups of Hamas hostages have been released (see video above). Back in freedom, they talk about the conditions they had to endure. They slept on plastic chairs, were given little to eat and were unsure until the end that they would not be lynched on the way to Israel.

Little by little, details about the conditions of detention are becoming public. For example, the Israeli broadcaster ‘Channel 12’ reports on released residents of the village of Nir Oz.

She was not abused or tortured. They were given only a few food items that they had to prepare themselves.

Supplies were running low
“There were days when there were no supplies, so they only ate flatbread. They were not tortured, but there were days when they barely had anything to eat, the last few days they ate only rice,” writes Channel 12. Supplies were running out and many were going hungry.

Repeatedly “cutting off the main gesture”
Their guards always wore masks and weapons. Hamas repeatedly made a motion with their hands as if their heads were being cut off, “SPIEGEL” reports. Sometimes the abductees were allowed to listen to the radio and going to the toilet was regulated.

The constant fear that Hamas would not fulfill its promise and release the hostages hung over the kidnapped like a sword of Damocles.

On the way to Israel, while in Red Cross vehicles, stones were thrown at the cars. “We didn’t feel safe until the last moment. We thought they were going to lynch us on the way to Israel.”

They did not learn the full extent of the devastating attacks until October 7 after their release.
