V #BBC Lucy Williamson in Tel Aviv:
There was steel beneath Yochedev Lifschitz' frailty:
"I've gone through hell," she described how the attackers kidnapped her from her house in kibbutz Nir Oz, carrying her to Gaza on a motorbike, punching her and hitting her with sticks - until, she said: "It was so painful that I couldn't breathe."
In #Gaza, she said, she joined a group of 25 hostages, and was then separated into a smaller group with 4 other people from her kibbutz (cont.) #Israel #hostages
and guarded inside a network of tunnels. She said she was treated well, had a mattress and one meal a day. She also said a doctor was sent to examine them.
"They were scared we’d become sick," she said.
She ended with critical words for the #Israeli government "We were their scapegoat," she said, describing the infiltration of Hamas into their fields three weeks before the 7 October attack. "They showed us what they were capable of, burning our fields, but the #IDF didn't take it seriously."
wtf? they attacked before this?
Why don’t you report on the Israelis slaughtered by the IDF through the Hannibal directive?
Or are you just a propagandist?
