Freed Israeli Hostage Describes Oct. 7
(Israel Hayom) Nissan Shtrauchler - Former hostage Rom Braslavski, 22, spoke Sunday at an event hosted by Italy's ruling party, Fratelli d'Italia, led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. "October 7 is a terrible trauma. I was kidnapped by the terrorists from Gaza. I saw the horrors with my own eyes. I witnessed the massacre. I saw young, beautiful women thrown on the ground, riddled with bullets, their clothes torn, and rivers of blood were on the road, while in the background the cries and screams of 'Allahu Akbar' were heard." "I saw inside a large yellow garbage bin full of bodies. Women, adults, small children, all covered in blood, and they were murdered only because they are Jews and Israelis. During my time in captivity, they tortured me every day and left me with physical and mental scars everywhere....The October 7 massacre was without a justified reason, and was an inhuman massacre." "Thank you and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni for the invitation to come here. Until two months ago, I was inside Gaza, 131 feet (40 meters) underground. Torn clothes after I hadn't showered for at least a month, I hadn't eaten for entire days."
