“While the UN continues its attacks on Israel, Eli will remind the world who we are fighting for,” Danny Dannon, Israel’s UN ambassador, wrote on X/Twitter.
“We will not stop until Hamas is defeated and every hostage returns home.”
The release
Eli Sharabi was kidnapped from Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7 and separated from his wife Leanne and daughters Noya and Yahel.
It was only after his release from captivity that Sharabi, who was held hostage by Hamas for 491 days, finally learned that his wife and both daughters were murdered that day.
Sharabi was released by Hamas in February as part of the hostage-ceasefire deal. He was freed together with Ohad Ben Ami and Or Levy.
An initial medical examination reported to Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center and Sheba Medical Center revealed that the former hostages were in serious condition.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog said the severe weight loss and serious conditions of released hostages was a “crime against humanity.” The survivors appeared starved and lost some 30% of their overall weight.
Eli returned from an impossible reality in captivity to a very difficult reality in Israel.
