Israel Gaza: ‘Every day felt like an eternity’ – freed hostage Itay Regev

Freed Israeli hostage Itay Regev has told the BBC he was held in “horrific” conditions in Gaza and he did not think he would get out alive. The 19-year-old was kidnapped from the Nova music festival along with his sister and a friend.

In November, he was released along with his sister, Maya, and 103 other hostages in return for some 240 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails during a brief truce.

On a visit to London, Itay also accused the world of forgetting those still held by Hamas and urged the Israeli government to do whatever it took to bring them home.
