The forum stated that the decision to release the video was made by the families of the five lookouts who are still being held captive by Hamas, namely Liri Albag, Karina Ariev, Agam Berger, Daniel Gilboa, and Naama Levy.
Seven lookouts were kidnapped alive from the base. Ori Megidish was rescued by the IDF in October, and Noa Marciano was killed by Hamas in captivity. Her body was recovered by the IDF in November and returned for burial in Israel.
“Look them in the eyes,” the forum asked. “The video is a sharp indictment of the national failure – the lawlessness in the case of the hostages for the past 229 days.” The video shows the violent and humiliating treatment the women underwent on the day of their abduction and depicts the immense fear reflected through their eyes, the forum also said.
‘Government must return to the negotiating table’
“Every new testimony about what happened to the hostages echoes the same tragic truth: We must bring them all back home, now,” it continued.
“The State of Israel cannot accept a reality where its citizens constantly feel their lives are threatened and suffer from unrelenting fear and anxiety. With each passing day, it becomes more challenging to bring the hostages back home – the living for rehabilitation and the murdered for proper burial. The Israeli government must not waste another moment; it must return to the negotiating table, today!” the statement punctuated.
Fifteen other female observers, who served at the base, were murdered by Hamas on October 7.
