London-based Sharone Lifschitz said her 85-year-old mother, Yocheved Lifshitz, ‘seems OK’ after her weeks-long ordeal.
A grandmother released as a hostage by Hamas militants is “very sharp and is very keen” to share information, her daughter has said, as efforts continue to free the other captives and supply aid to Palestinians.
She was released alongside fellow Israeli citizen Nurit Cooper, 79, on Monday evening, but their husbands, 83 and 84, remain captive with more than 200 other civilians. “She is very sharp and is very keen to share the information, pass on the information to families of other hostages she was with,” she told the BBC.She said she will continue to campaign for the release of her father, Oded Lifshitz, and the other captives.“He knows many people in Gaza and the West Bank. I want to think that he’s going to be OK.
“We have to find ways because there is no alternative. If anything, it makes me even more resolved,” she said. “They were very friendly towards them and they took care of them, they were given medicine and they were treated,” Ms Lifschitz said.
