The Hostages and Families forum released a three-minute-long clip showing five female IDF soldiers in Hamas’ captivity. The footage is from Hamas’ October 7, 2023 attack on Israel’s Nahal Oz military base. The footage showed the young women, all of them stunned and some bloodied, being bound and bundled into a jeep. It also showed women soldiers lined up against a wall with their hands tied. Meanwhile, Hamas, in a statement on May 22, accused Israel of promoting “fabricated narratives.”
