Surviving Hamas Captivity: Tales of Fear, Hunger, and Rebuilding
TL;DR
Freed hostages from Gaza reveal the harrowing conditions they endured while captive under Hamas, including sleeping on benches, little to no food, and being forced to watch videos of the Hamas rampage. Many hostages suffered physical and emotional scars, with some families being split up and left in the dark about their relatives' fate. The truce deal between Israel and Hamas has led to the release of over 60 hostages, but concerns remain about the well-being of those still in captivity.
