Danielle Aloni, Ditza Heiman, Yocheved Lifshitz, and Yaffa Adar shared their traumatic experiences in a video presented by The Missing Families and Hostages Forum, a campaign group in Israel.

The release of this video coincided with a plea for the freedom of the remaining 136 hostages trapped in Gaza.

Individual Stories Unveiled

Danielle Aloni, aged 45, recounted the 49 days she spent in captivity with her six-year-old daughter, Emilia.

Her vivid description portrayed a nightmare of torture and deprivation within the intricate network of tunnels beneath Gaza.

Aloni, visibly shaken, conveyed the indescribable emotional toll of each passing day.

Yocheved Lifshitz’s Struggle

Yocheved Lifshitz, aged 85, shared her 17-day ordeal in what she described as a ‘spider web’ of tunnels.

Facing challenges with sleep, food, and health, she stressed the critical nature of each passing day.

Her plea extended to her husband and friends still held captive, urging the government to act swiftly for their release.

Ditza Heiman’s Life-Threatening Experience

At 84 years old, Ditza Heiman spent 53 days in captivity, emphasizing the life-threatening conditions she faced.

The deterioration of living conditions and scarcity of food during her captivity underscored the urgency of immediate action to rescue those still held captive.

Yaffa Adar’s Emotional Plea

Yaffa Adar, aged 85, emotionally recounted her 49 days in captivity and passionately appealed for the release of her grandson, Tamir Adar, who remains hostage.

Her poignant words reflected the desperation and concern for the well-being of the captives, urging decisive action.

Global Efforts and UN Resolution

The release of the hostages coincided with a temporary ceasefire deal, leading to the release of a significant number of captives.

However, 136 hostages still remain in captivity.

On Tuesday, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, garnering global support.
