NAZARETH December 16. 2023 (Saba) - The released Zionist detainee, Chen Goldstein-Almog, confirmed that she and her three sons, who were detained with her by the Hamas movement in Gaza, were treated with respect and were not subjected to any physical harm or ill-treatment.
Goldstein said in a statement to the American newspaper "The New York Times" last night: She had long conversations with her captors that sometimes lasted for hours, adding: "We talked about our families and the extreme danger that we all face."
She explained that they were mostly detained in an apartment in Gaza, but during her detention period - which lasted seven weeks - she and her children were transferred to different apartments, tunnels, a mosque, and even a destroyed supermarket, as she put it. She said: During the various transfers, the situation was terrifying because of the Zionist bombing on the Gaza Strip.
She added: The commander of the guards seemed educated and spoke Hebrew, and that the guards taught her son 250 words in Arabic to keep him busy and brought him a notebook to study, and they regularly discussed with them what to eat and invited them to participate in cooking in the kitchen.
The released detainee continued her speech by saying: A Hamas fighter apologized to her for the killing of her husband and one of her daughters at the hands of other individuals, and told her that what happened was a mistake.
Goldstein-Almog confirmed that before her release, one of the guards told her: “Do not return to the Gaza envelope because we are returning,” and asked her to go further.
Goldstein-Almoj, who is 48 years old, and her three children were detained during Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7, and were released in late November as part of a prisoner exchange between the Zionist entity and Hamas during the temporary humanitarian truce.
