For the First Time: Noa Argamani Reveals the Horrors of Her Captivity

In a conversation with diplomats from Japan, Argamani recounted: "They hid us in tunnels where no one could see us. My hair was cut off, I had cuts all over my head, I was beaten all over my body, and no one came to provide medical assistance until I was rescued. Every night, I would fall asleep thinking it could be my last night alive."

Argamani also added, "I lost a lot of weight; we drank less than half a liter of water a day, and there were days when we weren’t allowed to drink at all."

Argamani noted that she only had a shower twice a month and emphasized, "It’s a miracle that I’m here. It’s a miracle that I survived October 7th, that I survived the bombings, and that I survived the rescue."
