3 hostages of Hamas were kept underground

New details of 3 more hostages freed from the captivity of Hamas tells of the horrible situation they were in:
What happened to the hostages during 491 days in hell of Gaza? With the return of Ohad Ben Ami, Ori Levi, and Eli Sharabi from Hamas captivity on Saturday, new details are emerging about their harrowing ordeal, both psychologically and physically, as evidenced by the images that shocked the world.

The three hostages were held in severe conditions, according to their testimonies. For most of their captivity, they were given very little food kept in underground tunnels without exposure to daylight. They stated that they had no way of knowing whether it was summer or winter outside.

Their access to media was extremely limited, with Al Jazeera being the primary source of news they were exposed to. They were given very little food, and even when they did receive meals, the nutrition provided was insufficient to meet their bodily needs, leading to extreme weight loss.

The hostages recounted that in the days leading up to their release, they were given slightly more food in an apparent attempt to create the illusion that their captivity conditions had been adequate. However, when they emerged, they appeared frail and emaciated, reflecting the true reality of their ordeal.

According to a source at Sheba Medical Center, Levi and Sharabi were unaware that their family members had been murdered. Levi's wife, Einav, was killed in the "death shelter" at the Nova festival, while Sharabi's wife and three daughters were also murdered. The body of his brother, Yossi, is still in Gaza. The two were informed of their loved ones' fate by psychologists who spoke to them at the reception point in Re'im.
It's all absolutely abominable.
