Former hostage Yosef Chaim Ohana visited a musuem dedicated to Gush Katif, reflecting on the striking contrast between his time being held captive in Gaza and the former Jewish communities that once stood there.

Former hostage Yosef Chaim Ohana said that hearing of the return of the body of the final hostage has healed something deep within him.

At the festival, he worked as a bartender and was abducted by Hamas on October 7 while helping evacuate the injured.

Yosef Chaim Ohana and a group of fellow hostages freed from Gaza over a month ago traveled to Washington, D.C., to thank President Trump for securing their release.

'They made us choose between each other, who to kill, who to just wound, they drew lots on us.'
