Noa Argamani, an Israeli woman freed from Hamas captivity in Gaza in June, said on Friday that her injuries were caused by an Israeli air strike during her rescue operation, not by a Hamas attack.
Speaking to diplomats from G7 countries in Tokyo on Wednesday, Argamani detailed her ordeal after she was taken captive by Palestinian armed groups during the 7 October attack. However, two days later, she issued a statement on Instagram, saying that some of her remarks had been misquoted and taken out of context.
Contrary to some Israeli media reports, Argamani clarified that she was not beaten or had her hair shaved by Palestinian fighters.
“[Hamas members] did not hit me while I was in captivity, nor did they cut my hair; I was injured by the collapse of a wall caused by an [Israeli] Air Force pilot,” she added.
Quote not included in the summary:
“Avinatan, my boyfriend, is still there, and we need to bring them back before it’s going to be too late. We don’t want to lose more people than we already lost,” Argamani said.
Also, a reminder that holding civilians hostage is a war crime.
raping civilian hostages is also a crime but israeli society doesnt seem to think so
Many in Israel think they should be punished by the military, similar to how the US punished members of the military for the abuses at Abu Ghraib.
Meanwhile Hamas made Yahya Sinwar, the man responsible for the atrocities on October 7, to be their leader.
As much as y’all try to both sides this thing, it’s very clear Hamas are really bad people.
Both Hamas and the IDF are evil bastards only interested in harming the other, even if it means killing innocents. No excuses for either side.
“both sides both side both sides”
How about we demand that Hamas leave their underground lairs and battle the IDF a safe distance away from the civilian population?
I’m sure the IDF would agree to those terms, but do you honestly believe Hamas would?
I tend not to blame the beaten dog for biting the kid, instead I blame the man who beat the dog to that point.
human beings are responsible for their own actions
Say whatever you feel hardens up your soul to the systemic atrocities committed on the palastinians. Do you care about making the world better? Or are you concerned only with establishing a world in which your side can say “history stops here, where we have no blame”.
Coward cop out.
i don’t like an analogy where one’s a human and the other isn’t. if you want to make that out to be whatever strawman you just did that’s your prerogative
How about concentration camps and black market organ trade?
That’s China
I think you may have gone too deep down a rabbit hole that I’m not familiar with. A rabbit hole I’m not interested in.
I’m talking about Hamas war crimes, please make an effort to stay on topic.
That’s such a clear representation of what’s wrong with your entire view of this. Absolutely refusing to acknowledge the 80 years of Israel crimes against the palastinians cause you don’t wanna focus on that. They are interconnected. Cause and effect. Easy. Simple.
