- Former Hamas hostage Ilana Gritzewsky joined Sky News Australia to reveal the tragic story of when she and her boyfriend were kidnapped on October 7 in Israel.
“They hit me so hard that they broke my hips,” she told Sky News host Sharri Markson.
“In that moment I didn’t know what is going to happen to me.”
Warning - this video contains distressing content.
Please stop playing music in these interviews. The testimonies deserve to stand on their own.
They can't stand on their own, because they are rehearsed and she shows all the micro expressions of deception. The music and unrelated videos are a method of distraction. Sky news should be ashamed.
I agree
You are right. It's not a movie for entertainment. It's also difficult to hear the interview
And it's way too loud in comparison to the interview. Obliterates the voices.
I agree to, that music is no necessary
So grateful she is home. I felt that mother's pain!
Liar
Do you feel the palestinians pain ? Hundreds of thousands of dead innocent people, thousands of tortured palestinian prisoners that didn't get to be called hostages by the media. They have no hospital to go to. Israel destroyed them all. And no food and no family to get back to as they're often ALL dead. Do you feel for them as well ? Or do you blindly believe the propaganda stating that the jews are the forever victims while the others will never deserve the same status as human beings ?

The same thing happened in Nigeria and till days our girls are not back home , it’s a terrible situation. Am glad she is save
@@ijuoveronica6335 Oh no! I thought that they were already rescued not long ago!
@@cl5080 just few of them that was returned , so many of them are still there
@@ijuoveronica6335 My prayer is that all of the hostages everywhere will be rescued alive. Did you hear about that 21 year old Yazidi girl who was kidnapped by ISIS in Iraq when she was 11 years old? She was sold to a Palestinian man in Gaza, and sexually trafficked into Syria, Turkey, and Egypt. But when she heard that the brother of her “owner” was killed by the IDF, it encouraged her to make a TikTok video of herself, and it went viral. She had to endure one more beating from her Palestinian captor, but the IDF was able to locate and rescue her, and she is now back with her family. Prayers for release for all Nigerian girls! 🙏🏽
The Rapture of the Church is very soon
All reunited with our loved ones in Heaven!
JESUS IS LORD.
Trust Him.
And we don't see students protesting for them
Anyone who attends a pro Palestinian protest and says that what Hamas did was justified..Taking an innocent person from their families and home then Subjecting them to torture or murder i hope they will never go through what this mother endured when they took her daughter into Gaza
I pray IIlana's boyfriend is freed along with the othes still in Gaza..Thankful that IIlana is safe home with her family..

Amen
These proHamas/"Palestinians are not different than the nazis,- probably more stupid. They will be on the same page as Hitler in history books. Stand with Israel.
Who is innocent? children in Gaza are not innocent you mean? Did they did that?? That question is that when it will happen, not why.
@@007dandelion Nobody is saying that Gazan children are not innocent. However, the IDF is also innocent, when they have to kill civilians in their attempt to rescue the hostages. The true guilt lies with the Gazan terrorists of Hamas. We agree that it is a sad thing that innocent children have to die, only because they had the tremendous misfortune to be born into substandard families that are hell bent on using them as “social collateral.” As a parent and a grandparent, I think it’s safe to say that any parent who can vote for Hamas, and then intentionally put his children in harm’s way by keeping Jewish children locked up in his basement… Hmm, what would I call such persons… how about “scum of the earth?” Or perhaps “savages,” “thugs,” “brainless wonders,” or “reptilian sociopaths.” Do we feel sorry for their poor little children to have “parents” like that? You betcha.
They protest out of shear ignorance and sheeple mentality.
The worst thing to happen to a human being to be taken by monsters.
Your so right
lets count how many children and innocent sivillians are taken hostige before and after 7 oktober?
About the monsters who kidnapped 740 children as young as 9 years old as hostages before oct 7?
150,000 bombs been dropped on babies and children in Gaza, in 1 year?
20,000 babies and children dead, 20,000 are missing, 19,000 are orphans, 5,000 lost limbs, eyes arms legs burnt?
They are monsters on both sides!
Idf monsters
How can they be the only monsters when the Zionists killed the Palestinians,beat them,steal
Their lands,burn their olive trees,rape young women In Impunity and all these innocent men and woman some of them pregnant in jail put to starve and beatten daily ,please unlight me here ,and above all those kids put in jails,some 3-4 years old,raped with big dicks ,screaming. Yelling at night for help and all this before war .She lost weight bc Zionists destroyed the humanitarian supplies and brought their kids to help them destroy the food saying hamass wont have food but what about the hostages ?!
Bless her and her mum. Praying for her husband to be released.
Unbelievable that there is people in the west supporting Hamas (Palestinians are Hamas)
Yes I can’t understand that anyone normal can support pure evil called Hamas
By your line of thought all Israelis are terrorists and not only the government
Maybe coz they are against Zionist terrorirism,
Israel actor. If there were hostages then the IDF will use the Hannibal directive.
Nobody is supporting hamas. Children are not hamas.
That poor woman. She's shaking and quivering just talking about her experience. Hamas are monsters.
10 women and two kids still held hostage
Nothing is compares with what the zionists did to The Owner of The Land of Palestine: The Palestinians since Nakbah-1948….one of them was “menachem begin” - “golda meir”…..and friends…till today….
@@shafiqvankreefft4933Piss off grub.

How can anyone condone such violence and depravity? I wish all the protesters view this. They won't because they deny everything that is the truth. Prayers to Israel.
They are protesting against bombing hospitals and schools and journalists and little girls, like hind rajab
Are you for flipping real? You obviously don't know the meaning of the word depravity, it's spelt Israrl in the dictionary
@@leslie-annmills-gomez8763 Perhaps stop being such a useful idiot. Have you seen the videos of what Hamas and other Islamic fundamentalists do to people? Maybe the Arabs should go back to the peninsula. The Islamic empire no longer exists, time to go back home.
Are you blind to what has been happening to the Palestinians for the past 75 years??? Your clearly racist
You just cant believe how anyone can be so deluded.
Absolutely frightening
I pray this incredible young woman has received the help she needs to take her soul home from the tunnels, as she mentioned her "soul is still in the tunnels."
And the other hostages still there need to know they are not forgotten
Never forgotten!
The Israeli government certainly has in their quest for war.

I'm the least sensitive person I know and I find these difficult to watch. I find it disgusting when people downplay or attempt to justify anything that happened that day. I'm getting more and more angry. I actually want to go and volunteer in The IDF.
So, basically, you want to go kill people you've never met or done anything to you out of anger and hatred. How are you different from Hamas?
Me too.
The downplaying of the occupation y’all do makes me sick. Her story doesn’t add up. Get a brain psychopath
@@NourKLI Where did I do that? Don't credit me with YOUR morals. I have not downplayed anything.
I agree! What happened that day cannot be justified. Period end.
Hamas is the enemy if you asked me. They seem to be using the Palestinians as human shields and to garner sympathy when they truly don’t give a damn about these people. They’re using them. Hiding behind them. For their own agenda. I hope the Palestinians stand up together and force Hamas out.. as long as they are there there will never be peace.
Oct. 7th can never be justified.

thank The Lord for her and for her being home.
Such a beautiful young girl. How can someone be so cruel and kidnap just because of her religion 😢😢
She was kidnapped because of the actions of her government. She was on occupied land. It is that simple. When the Germans occupied Poland, France, Russia etc, do we condemn the people of those countries for fighting against the German occupiers? No? Because these people were resisting the occupation? Hence it is the same in Palestine. I dont condone the taking hostage of unarmed civilians. If they were heavily armed illegal settlers, then fair is fair, theyre a fair target. Never civilians. Never. But that is the truth. She is on occupied land and in the mindset of Hamas and the like, that makes her a fair target.
Glad she is home but people shouldnt pretend that her experiences were particularly horrific. Why was she starved? Because food wasnt getting into Gaza, despite the Israelis lying on a daily basis that food was getting in. A little bit was, but not on the scale that was needed. Hamas wasnt going to kill her. They needed the hostages alive in order to get Palestinians released. The violence on October 7 was disgusting, yes, no denying that. I think that was designed to be shock and awe and to show that Hamas means business. And unfortunately there were fighters from ISIS and Islamic Jihad amongst the Hamas fighters, who are more extreme in how they conduct themselves, probably why there was so much violence on Oct 7 during what appears to have been a standard hostage snatch. If this was about pure terror, she would have probably been beheaded and the footage sent to her family. The IDF certainly didnt care about her, she was expendable to Netanyahu
Thanks mate
Praise God for her safe return to her family. Shame on all those, especially Australians, who are protesting in support of Hamas
They should add subtitles or add a Speaker because I cannot understand half of what she is saying, sadly.

Agreed. Basically sex slaves in those nasty tunnels... by all those gross men... sick.
Back ground music is too loud to hear the speakers very well
She does NOT look starved... not like the Palestinian prisoners
maltreated often tortured without charge, treated like ' animals' or worse
Considering what happened to thousands of innocent, maltreated, bombed, made homeless and starved civilians and crippled children in unjustly occupied Gaza, she seems to have been treated with care in a environment bombed to smithereens by her own government which could have freed her by a peacetreaty will fully delayed for 15 months.
Well said
I felt that my body was at a safe place but my soul was in the tunnels, what a painful statement this is ….!!! We thank God for your life . We hope the rest of the innocent hostages will make it back alive
