Mourning after liberation
Hostage did not know his family was dead
Eli Sharabi's joy at regaining his freedom was short-lived. When he wanted to see his family again, the hostage, who was handed over by Hamas on Saturday, learned that his wife and their two daughters had been murdered by terrorists during the Hamas massacre 16 months ago.
According to a report by Channel 12, the girls were 13 and 16 years old at the time. In government footage, 52-year-old Sharabi can be seen in the arms of his mother and sister.
34-year-old Or Levy was also unable to embrace his wife. She was also killed in the terrorist attack. According to Israeli media, Levy will not meet his three-year-old son until a later date due to his poor physical condition.
"Our father has emerged from the horror"
The third released man, Ohad Ben Ami, was seen on a video distributed by the government reuniting with his relatives. His happy-looking wife embraced him and told him that she loved him. His brother also hugged him afterwards. In a video call with his daughters, the 56-year-old could also be seen beaming next to his wife.
"Our father has emerged from the horror and you can see the trauma he has suffered. But we remain strong for him," his three daughters said in a statement released by the Forum of Hostage Relatives.
