Noa Argamani, an Israeli woman freed from Hamas captivity in Gaza in June, said on Friday that her injuries were caused by an Israeli air strike during her rescue operation, not by a Hamas attack.
Speaking to diplomats from G7 countries in Tokyo on Wednesday, Argamani detailed her ordeal after she was taken captive by Palestinian armed groups during the 7 October attack. However, two days later, she issued a statement on Instagram, saying that some of her remarks had been misquoted and taken out of context.
Contrary to some Israeli media reports, Argamani clarified that she was not beaten or had her hair shaved by Palestinian fighters.
“[Hamas members] did not hit me while I was in captivity, nor did they cut my hair; I was injured by the collapse of a wall caused by an [Israeli] Air Force pilot,” she added.
Why does Hamas refuse to allow the red cross access to inspect hostages?
Israel has impersonated aid/medical workers to assault hospitals multiple times in this conflict. So yea I wouldn’t trust them either.
Well, they are terrorists holding hostages… they may fear the IDF getting intel from them?
I highly doubt the well being of hostages is in hamas top priorities
I don’t understand this narrative. If Hamas was as dismissive of the well being of the hostages as Israel is, there would have been no hostages left after a week.
Hamas wants to keep the hostages alive and reasonably well so they can use them to trade for the Palestinians being held hostage and (we know) are being tortured by Israel and hopefully stop the Israeli aggression atleast temporarily.
They wouldn’t have taken them just to ignore and/or kill them for no reason.
