An Israeli hostage who was abducted during the Hamas-led terror onslaught on October 7 said Monday that she was captured by armed Palestinian civilians who later sold her to the Gaza-ruling terror group.
Nili Margalit’s revelation in an interview with the Le Point French magazine appeared to further highlight the extent to which participation in the shock attack in which some 1,200 Israelis were killed and 253 were taken hostage extended beyond fighters in the Hamas terror group.Margalit shared her story while on a Paris stop of a tour throughout Europe aimed at raising awareness of the 133 Israelis still in captivity.
Margalit was in her home in the Gaza-border town of Kibbutz Nir Oz when thousands of Palestinian terrorists burst across the border shortly after dawn.
Like many others, she took refuge in her house’s bomb shelter before messages began flooding in from neighbors sharing that terrorists had infiltrated their town, she recalled in the interview.At around 9 a.m. terrorists breached Margalit’s home, ransacking rooms and setting the building on fire. They soon found her hiding in her safe room.
The 42-year-old was pulled outside and covered with a white sheet while surrounded by what she described as “civilians armed with Kalashnikovs.” She was forced onto a golf cart and driven to the southern border before being transferred to a car and driven to the Gazan city of Khan Younis.
There, her civilian captors “negotiated with Hamas to sell me. When they were paid, I was taken straight into a tunnel,” she said.

Brodi "armed civilians" abducting people are not civilians, they are just militants
You're literally smearing civilians, again you genocidal maniac
Hope you go broke soon without your job
@InnocentBudgetBillGreen1mo1MO
I like how all these stories are coming out against civilians when being exposed that you’re killing civilians. Weird huh..
What you’re trying to say is “look I know we’re killing civilians but they’re really not civilians! They’re all khamas and evil!”
@ISIDEWITH1mo1MO
Do you think the actions of the armed civilians who sold Margalit to Hamas reflect personal survival instincts or a deeper societal issue, and why?
@9LFGXVM1mo1MO
I think they disagreed with the people incharge of freeing her. and they went about it themselves.
@ISIDEWITH1mo1MO
Considering Margalit's abduction and sale to Hamas, what are your thoughts on the human aspect of conflict and the choices individuals make?
@9LDXHGP1mo1MO
Free Palestine stop bombing Gaza and denying aid to innocent civilians
@DrearyCapitolGreen1mo1MO
All released hostages need to do lie detector test on camera. Including Mia who changed her story for nose job night at Oscar’s.
Oh, must be those “innocents” we kept hearing about.
