Hamas forced a 12-year-old Israeli hostage to watch videos of the atrocities they carried out on October 7, his family have claimed.

Eitan Yahalomi was one of 11 Israeli hostages who were released by the terror group on Monday evening.

Now speaking on Tuesday, his aunt Devora Cohen said “the Hamas terrorists forced him to watch films of the horrors, the kind that no one wants to see, they forced him to watch them.”

She also said that any time a child in captivity cried “they threatened them with rifles to shut them up.”

Speaking to France’s BFM TV, she added: “When he arrived in Gaza, all the residents, everyone, beat him. He is a 12-year-old child.”

Yahalomi, a dual Israeli-French citizen, was initially taken captive with his mother and two sisters, but they managed to escape and ran away, returning to Israel. Eitan’s father, Ohad, was also apparently taken captive to Gaza and remains there.

Meanwhile, other Israeli hostages have started to reveal the poor conditions they were being held captive in by the Hamas terror group over the last seven weeks.

Merav Raviv, whose aunt Ruth Munder, 78, cousin Keren Munder, 54, and Keren’s son Ohad, 9, were released by Hamas last Friday, said they had been fed irregularly and slept on rows of moulded plastic seats. Raviv also said Keren and Ruthir had each lost around 15 pounds in just 50 days.

Ruthie was snatched on October 7 from her home in Nir Oz, a kibbutz in southern Israel. Her husband, Avraham, also 78, was taken hostage too and remains in Gaza.

Initially, they ate "chicken with rice, all sorts of canned food and cheese," Munder told Israel’s Channel 13, in an audio interview. "We were OK."

They were given tea in the morning and evening, and the children were given sweets, she added. But the menu changed when "the economic situation was not good, and people were hungry."

Munder also said the room where she was held was "suffocating," and the captives were prevented from opening the blinds. "It was very difficult," she concluded.

Meanwhile, Eyal Nouri, the nephew of Adina Moshe, 72, who was freed on Friday, said his aunt “had to adjust to the sunlight” because she had been in darkness for weeks.

Nouri said: “She was in complete darkness. She was walking with her eyes down because she was in a tunnel. She was not used to the daylight. And during her captivity, she was disconnected ... from all the outside world.”

Meanwhile, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said released hostage Elma Avraham, 84, was taken to Soroka Hospital in Beersheba in serious condition.

“Elma, who was returned to us in serious condition, was immediately evacuated by helicopter to the hospital. She was evacuated by IDF troops while still inside Gaza,” he said on Monday.

The number of Israelis freed under the six-day truce now stands at 51 along with 19 hostages of other nationalities. So far, 150 Palestinians have been released from Israeli prisons.

Israel has said it would extend the cease-fire by one day for every 10 additional hostages released.
