Doron Katz Asher and her daughters were held captive by Hamas for nearly 50 days following an attack on October 7.

They were taken to Gaza, subjected to psychological warfare, and held in a hospital.

Eventually, they were released during a temporary ceasefire. (Trending: Trump Announces Heartbreaking Melania-Related Health Update)

Asher said, “They stitched my wounds without anesthetic, on the couch while my girls were next to me.”

“I told them there are no terrorists anymore and we’re with good people now who are guarding us until we can return home,” recalled Asher.

“They didn’t give us a lot of information, they mainly tried to say that Hamas wants to release us but in Israel no one cares about us,” she continued.

“That we won’t return to live in the kibbutz because it’s not our house – it’s not the place where we belong,” she added.

“This is the first time that Raz said to me, after a month and a half of me protecting her, ‘Mommy, I’m scared,’” said Asher.

Asher described the frightening experience of being smuggled out of Gaza and the trauma her family endured.

Despite their release, Asher’s mother’s partner and others remain in captivity.

“It’s one big show,” explained Asher. “Before I was released, my girls and I were barefoot for 50 days. We were cold because they were wearing short sleeves in November,” she continued.

“We didn’t see daylight that entire time … for them, just to be able to run outside, here in our yard, that’s the first thing they did,” said Asher.

The family is struggling to regain normalcy, haunted by the trauma and the plight of those still held.
