Hamas terrorists psychologically tortured released Israeli-Argentinian hostage Yarden Bibas by constantly taunting him about the uncertain fate of his wife and two children also taken hostage on Oct. 7, according to Israeli media reports.

Bibas, 35, was held captive by Hamas for 16 months before he was finally freed on Saturday alongside Ofer Calderon, 54, in a handover in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis as part of Israel’s cease-fire deal.

Bibas’ wife Shiri and his sons Kfir and Ariel were taken separately from the Kibbutz Nir Oz by Hamas during its Oct. 7 attack on Israel. At the time, Kfir was just 10 months old and Ariel was 4.

On the day of their abduction, a video of Shiri and her sons quickly made them the poster children for the hostages and victims. In the video, a terror-stricken Shiri is holding both boys in her arms as Hamas terrorists surround her on all sides.
