Israel - January 30, 2025 In a heart-wrenching moment that brought the nation to tears, Agam Berger, 20, was reunited with her family today after being held captive for 482 days. Abducted from the Nahal Oz base on October 7, Berger was freed in the third wave of hostage releases and returned to Israel amidst overwhelming emotions. Berger, who faced extreme conditions throughout her captivity, remained steadfast in her faith. Despite limited food options, she refrained from eating non-kosher meat, a decision that significantly affected her diet but underscored her strong belief system. Her family expressed immense relief and gratitude, saying, “Thank God we have reached this moment, and our heroic Agam has returned to us. We want to thank the security forces and the entire people of Israel for their support and prayers. Our healing begins now, but we won’t rest until every hostage returns home.” A touching video of her reunion with her family, shared by the IDF, highlights the emotional bond and strength of Berger and her loved ones as they begin the long process of healing.
