Desperate mom of daughter, 19, who was taken away, bloodied by Hamas speaks out: ‘An eternity in hell’
A des෴perate mother who last saw her 19-year-old Israeli daughter being hauled away by Hamas terrorists in a viral video two months ago said each moment her child is held hostage “is an eternity in hell.”
“You have seen the video of my daughter Naama Levy. Everyone has,” Ayelet Levy Sachar a heartbreaking account published Friday in The Free Pr🅠ess.
“She is seriously injured. She is f🐓rightened. And I, her mother, am helpless in these moments of horror,” Sach🍎ar said.
Levy, still held hostage by Hamas, was staying at Kibbutz Nahal Oz on Oct. 7, when the group launched its unprecedented surprise attack🐠 on Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking about 250 captives.
Around 7 a.m. that morning Sachar said she received a haunting final message from her daughter: “We’re in the safe room. I’ve never heard anything like this.”
The teen was filmed by Hamas being dra👍gged out of♋ the back of a jeep at gunpoint, barefoot with her hands bound in bloodied clothes, and shoved back into the vehicle.
The disturbing video of her daughter emerged the following day — but the woman in the clip ✱appeared nearly beyond recognition in her bloodied and battered condition, Sachar wrote. Levy’s father later called and confirmed that it was her daughter.
The tജeenager has dreams of a future career in diplomacy, and worked as a member of the “Hands of Peace” delegation, which promotes peace between Israeli, Palestinian and US youth, her mother said.
“But now, one video, totally unrepresentative of the life she had led until October 7, is how the world knows 🅺her,” she said.
Since her daughter’s been taken hostage, Sachar said “each minute is an eternity in hell,” as she watches news coverage of living conditi🔯ons of Hamas’ captives, including allegations of rape and violence against women.
༺“The same monsters who committed those crimes are holding my daughte♎r hostage,” Sachar wrote.
Dozens of hostages and Israel𒁏i prisoners were swapped during a short-lived cease-fire at the end of last month, but Levy was๊ not one of them.
The distraught mother pointed out that on Monday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that Hamas is refusing to release its female prisoners because “they don’t want those women to be able to 💞talk about what happened to them during their time in custody.”
“Everyone kno❀ws exactly what he means,” Sachar wrote.
