Noa Argamani, an Israeli woman freed from Hamas captivity in Gaza in June, said on Friday that her injuries were caused by an Israeli air strike during her rescue operation, not by a Hamas attack.

Speaking to diplomats from G7 countries in Tokyo on Wednesday, Argamani detailed her ordeal after she was taken captive by Palestinian armed groups during the 7 October attack. However, two days later, she issued a statement on Instagram, saying that some of her remarks had been misquoted and taken out of context.

Contrary to some Israeli media reports, Argamani clarified that she was not beaten or had her hair shaved by Palestinian fighters.

“[Hamas members] did not hit me while I was in captivity, nor did they cut my hair; I was injured by the collapse of a wall caused by an [Israeli] Air Force pilot,” she added.

    I think you may have gone too deep down a rabbit hole that I’m not familiar with. A rabbit hole I’m not interested in.

    I’m talking about Hamas war crimes, please make an effort to stay on topic.

      That’s such a clear representation of what’s wrong with your entire view of this. Absolutely refusing to acknowledge the 80 years of Israel crimes against the palastinians cause you don’t wanna focus on that. They are interconnected. Cause and effect. Easy. Simple.
