Hostages recently freed from captivity in Gaza have begun sharing harrowing accounts of their ordeal, describing severe torture, prolonged starvation, and extended periods of isolation. Many were held in tunnels, often alone or separated from loved ones, and subjected to psychological warfare, threats, and abuse. Some hostages recounted being forced to participate in propaganda videos under threat, while others experienced brief moments of interaction with their captors, such as playing cards or cooking meals. Medical examinations revealed significant weight loss and signs of trauma among the released individuals, who are now beginning the process of recovery and reunion with their families.
