Adina Moshe was freed in November as a part of a hostage deal, and just now is speaking on her experiences. While in captivity, 72-year-old Adina tried to befriend her captors as a strategy to survive, and she describes the maze of tunnels and discovering other kidnapped Israelis being held in cages, reports JNS:

The 72-year-old disclosed her encounters with fellow Israeli hostages Yarden Bibas and Ofer Kalderon from Kibbutz Nir Oz, whom she saw confined behind bars within the underground tunnels, providing a grim glimpse into their conditions and her efforts to improve their situation.

“I approached in complete darkness,” she recalled. “When I asked why they were confined, they said they don’t know. But when I inquired if they had confronted Hamas, it became clear they had.”

Moshe described her cautious approach to advocating for her fellow captives: “After two days, I approached the commander of the unit assigned to guard us. I told him I’d heard Hebrew voices and said, ‘They’re from Nir Oz.’ He was surprised at my knowledge.
