Hamas publishes video of hostage Noa Argamani’s voice, sparking outcry
Hamas terrorists have published a ‘psychological terror’ video of what is believed to be the voice of hostage Noa Argamani, sparking outcry from her family.
Noa, who is 26, was kidnapped from the Nova music festival on October 7 and taken into Gaza along with around 250 other hostages.
Video of her being kidnapped on the back of a motorcycle became symbolic of the horrors faced by civilians at the festival and across southern Israel when the violence erupted.
She later appeared in a chilling hostage video in January, speaking to camera alongside fellow captives Yossi Sharabi, 53, and Itai Svirsky, 38. The two men were later reported to have been killed.
In new audio, what appears to be Noa’s voice can be heard, accompanied with drawings which her family believe were done by the young woman.
The Hostages & Missing Families Forum provided a statement shortly after the latest clip was released saying: ‘Recently, Hamas released a video with the voice of Noa Argamani, whose been in Hamas captivity for 238 days.
‘125 hostages have been in Hamas captivity for 238 days. There is no need for a propaganda video from Hamas to echo our call to the Israeli government: You must quickly reach a deal that will return them all home.’

In the video, the voice identified as Argamani said ‘I am imprisoned with Al-Qassam Brigades. I have been in captivity for more than 237 days and do not know till when.
‘I say to the people of Israel: Have you become government partners with Netanyahu, Gallant and Gantz? Will my fate together with my colleagues be like Ron Arad’s fate?’
Ron Arad was an Israeli airman who bailed out of his plane during a mission over southern Lebanon in 1986 and was taken hostage. Israel has tried to locate him for decades but he is now presumed dead.
The disturbing statement went on: ‘Let thousands of women and men come out and block the streets of Tel Aviv and do not return home until we return home. Do not put our fate in the hands of Netanyahu and the War Council.
‘Time is running out. The people must decide. We don’t want to die here.’
The clip is the third hostage video released this week, with the previous two reportedly released by Palestinian terror group Islamic Jihad.
