Video of IDF observers kidnapped to Gaza to be published later today
A video of the instances in which female IDF observers were kidnapped from the Nahal Oz base to the Gaza Strip on October 7 is set to be published on Wednesday evening, the Hostage and Missing Families Forum announced.
The video, taken from Hamas terrorists’ body cameras, is 3:10 minutes long and has been censored.
The forum stated the decision to release the video was made by the families of the five observers who remain in Gaza captivity: Liri Albag, Karina Ariev, Agam Berger, Daniela Gilboa, and Naama Levy.
Seven observers 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.
‘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,” the forum said in a statement.
“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 added.
