A Holocaust survivor who was dragged away in a golf cart by Hamas terrorists in the October 7 attack was photographed smiling with her family hours after her release.
Yaffa Adar, one of 24 captives freed by Hamas, was seen smiling at the hospital in photos shared on Facebook by her many adoring relatives.
“I don’t have enough words to describe this feeling. You returned to us after 49 days of shock, panic, worries, tears and endless longings. Finally [we] You can start breathing,” Adar’s daughter, Vered Adar, wrote in a gushing post with a picture of the couple hugging.
The 85-year-old mother of three, grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of eight, was kidnapped from Kibbutz Nahal Oz last month and was among the first hostages freed on Friday as part of a temporary ceasefire.

His eldest grandson, Tamir Adar, 38, was also taken hostage and remains in Hamas custody, the family said on social media.
“The family gathered to see if it was really happening, and when I saw her on TV on her own two feet, I was very happy. It was like we had Jerusalem back,” Adar’s daughter-in-law, Yael Adar, told i24 News about the moment the family learned of the octogenarian’s release.
“Since the day she was kidnapped, she doesn’t know much. “She doesn’t know anything about the neighbors who were kidnapped or murdered, she doesn’t know that her grandson is still kidnapped,” Yael explained.
