Israeli Women Freed After 15 Months in Gaza Captivity
After being held captive by Hamas for 15 months, Israeli women Doron Steinbrecher, Romi Gonen, and Emily Damari have finally been released. They describe their ordeal of being separated, subjected to inhumane conditions such as minimal daylight, and receiving medical treatment without anesthesia. Despite the challenges, they supported each other, watched their families on TV, and heard them fighting for their release. The women's release coincided with the freeing of 90 Palestinian prisoners as part of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas.
