Let the Whole World Understand the Evil

Stand for Israel  |  September 10, 2024

Ynet News reports that a video was released that shows the narrow terrorist tunnel—not tall enough to stand—where the six hostages—Hersh, Eden, Ori, Almog, Carmel, Alex—were held and murdered late last month. No one should have to endure this cruelty:

The IDF spokesman on Tuesday evening screened the video of the tunnel under Rafah in Gaza where hostages Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Almog Sarusi, Carmel Gat and Alex Lobanov were held and executed at the end of last month. The army first presented the video to the families and they agreed to show it to the public as well. In the video, one sees IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari going down into the low tunnel, and not being able to stand upright inside it, and describing what he sees there and how the hostages were held in it…

The murdered hostages survived almost 11 months in captivity and were held in a tunnel in inhumane conditions , while starving and living without basic hygiene. The hostages had very little food in captivity, and they lost significant weight. Eden Yerushalmi’s body was found weighing only 36 kg (79 pounds).
