Al-Qassam publishes a letter it received from a released Israeli female prisoner

The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Resistance Movement (Hamas), published a letter sent by one of the detainees to the leadership of the brigades, who accompanied her during the detention period, hours before her release in an exchange deal as part of a humanitarian truce.


The letter showed the extent of the humane treatment with which the Al-Qassam Brigades treated female prisoners and children, contrary to what the occupation government and the Israeli and Western media tried to show the world.


Here is the text of the message:


“To the generals who have accompanied me in recent weeks, it seems that we will part tomorrow, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for the extraordinary humanity you have shown towards my daughter Emilia.

You were like parents to her, inviting her to your room at every opportunity she wanted. She admits to feeling that you are all her friends and not just friends, but real good beloved relatives.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the many hours you were like a nanny. Thank you for being so patient with her and showering her with sweets, fruits, and whatever was available even if it wasn't available.

Children should not be in captivity, but thanks to you and to other good people we have met along the way. My daughter considered herself a queen in Gaza.

In general, she admits to feeling like the center of the world. We have not met a person on our long journey, from the low level fighters to the leaders, who did not act towards her with kindness, tenderness and love.

I will forever be in a  debt of gratitude, because my daughter did not leave here with psychological trauma forever. I will remember your kind behavior that was granted here despite the difficult situation that you were dealing with yourselves and the difficult losses that befell you here in Gaza.

I wish that in this world we could be truly good friends. I wish you all health and wellness, health and love for you and your family members. Thank you very much. Daniel and Emilia.


Hebrew media acknowledged that members of the Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas" treated the detainees well, according to the accounts of those released, which supports the testimony of the elderly "Israeli" detainee, Lifshitz, who was released last month.


The military correspondent for the Hebrew Channel 13, Alon Ben David, said that he communicated with some of the detainees who were released, and they confirmed that Hamas fighters “gathered the members of each kibbutz (settlement) together, which gave them a greater sense of comfort.”


Ben David added, "The detainees were not subjected to violence or insult, and Hamas members tried to provide them with food, painkillers, and their regular medications as much as possible, under dangerous and harsh security conditions underground and inside the tunnels."


The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military arm of Hamas, launched Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7, in response to the Israeli occupation’s violations in the occupied Palestinian territories.


On the other hand, the Israeli occupation forces launched a war of extermination on the Gaza Strip, during which they killed about 17 thousand people, the majority of whom were children and women.
