On October 7, 2023, Gadi Moshe Mozes (80) was kidnapped by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad from Kibbutz Nir Oz, southern Israel. After enduring 482 days in captivity in Gaza, he was released on January 30, 2025. His story of survival and unimaginable resilience was shared in new testimonies on the Israeli television program @Uvda_tweet.
A THREAD 🧵:

Photo: GPO The morning of the October 7th, 2023, massacre, Gadi thought that if he went out to the terrorists, it would save his family. His partner of 20 years, Efrat, had her daughter and grandchildren visiting the kibbutz that weekend. When he stepped outside, the terrorists told him they were from Palestinian Islamic Jihad, not Hamas. Thinking back, he said: “As if it matters whether you are killed by Islamic Jihad or Hamas.”

Eli Sharabi’s full address at the United Nations today. He survived 491 days of Hamas captivity in Gaza, and with remarkable resilience and strength, he shared his story with the world. Upon being released from captivity, he learned the heartbreaking news that his wife, Lianne, and their two daughters, Noiya and Yahel, were murdered by terrorists on October 7, 2023.

Photo by Liri Agami/Flash90 My name is Eli Sharabi. I am 53 years old. I’ve come back from hell. I’ve returned to tell my story. I used to live in Kibbutz Be’eri [southern Israel] with my British-born wife, Lianne, and my daughters, Noiya and Yahel. It was a beautiful community. We were all passionate about creating the best life for our children and for our neighbors.

On March 18, 2025, Israel resumed strikes on Hamas in Gaza, after the terrorist group rejected multiple U.S. and Israeli offers to extend ceasefire negotiations in return for the release of hostages.
A thread 🧵: On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists launched a brutal attack in Israel, massacring over 1,200 people, injuring thousands, and kidnapping more than 250 hostages into Gaza. This triggered the October 7th War, which has been horrific for Israeli and Palestinian civilians.
In this war, Israel seeks to dismantle Hamas and free the hostages. Hamas seeks to stay in control of Gaza and has promised to repeat the atrocities of October 7, 2023, until Israel is destroyed.

🚨 New details revealed about Hisham al-Sayed, the Israeli Bedouin with a mental condition who was held by Hamas for nearly a decade. Here’s what we know: 🧵👇

📷: IDF Liri Albag, just 18 years old, had just arrived at the Nahal Oz base in southern Israel on October 5, 2023—just two days before the October 7th Hamas massacre.
She was woken up at 6:29 AM that horrible Saturday by fellow soldiers and rushed to the shelter. At first, she thought it might have been the more experienced soldiers just waking them up that day, since she was new on the base, but soon realized it was worse than she could possibly imagine—rocket fire and red alerts.

More details revealed about the health condition of hostages who survived Hamas’ horrendous captivity in Gaza and returned to Israel.
A Thread🧵: The head of Israel’s Ministry of Health’s medical division, Dr. Hagar Mizrahi, shared alarming details about the condition of the freed hostages, revealing that their extreme weight loss resulted in severe muscle mass depletion and, in some cases, muscle bleeding. She expressed deep concern for those who remain in captivity, stating: “We have seen weight loss of up to 40% in some of the returnees, along with severe nutritional deficiencies. The longer we wait and the hostages do not return home, their medical condition will worsen and deteriorate.”

She was on the brink of losing consciousness. In a moment of pure survival instinct, she was able to throw away a grenade that had been tossed toward her.

Karina Ariev, Daniella Gilboa, Liri Albag, and Naama Levy survivors of 477 days in Hamas captivity in Gaza, endured unimaginable horrors. Their testimonies reveal both their suffering and their resilience.

This is the story of Ben Shimoni, a 31-year-old who became a symbol of courage and selflessness during one of the most tragic days in Israel’s history, October 7th, 2023.
A thread🧵: On October 7, 2023, Ben was at the Nova Festival near Kibbutz Re’im, southern Israel when Hamas terrorists launched a brutal massacre, beginning at 6:29 AM. What should have been a celebration of peace and music turned into a nightmare of violence and terror.

A thread 🧵:

In June 2024, three groups (Code Pink, Palestinian Youth Movement and WESPAC Foundation) organized a riot to block Jews from entering a synagogue in Los Angeles. On July 24, 2024, the StandWithUs Center for Legal Justice (SCLJ) filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of 7 Jewish victims of that violence to hold these groups accountable. On June 23, more than 200 rioters marched into the predominantly Orthodox Jewish neighborhood of Pico-Robertson in LA and prevented worshippers from attending regularly scheduled prayers at Adas Torah synagogue. Rioters were armed with a variety of weapons, including bear spray.

1. Dave #Chappelle is a comedian who has offended just about everyone. He can make whatever jokes he wants.
That said, we're an education organization and Chappelle's appearance on @nbcsnl offers a teachable moment.
Thread: 2. He makes fun of fake or forced statements against #antisemitism. Those really are unhelpful and unnecessary. During this time of rising bigotry against #Jews, we need real love, support, and understanding.

🚨 #BREAKING: Reports of a massive explosion in central #Istanbul, Turkey. At least 11 people have been wounded thus far. Details to follow. Update: Suspected suicide bombing. At least 1 #Israeli reported to be among the injured.
