Geula Levy, the mother of Or Levy, who is expected to be released by Hamas later today, says it is not clear if he knows that his wife Eynav was killed on October 7, 2023.
“We don’t know if Or knows that his wife was murdered, but from what we have heard the terrorists very much enjoyed telling the hostages that their loved ones had been killed and causing them pain and suffering,” she tells Army Radio.
Levy, 34, was kidnapped from the Supernova rave near Kibbutz Re’im on October 7. His wife Eynav was killed, and their now three-year-old son Almog has been staying with his grandparents since.
“Almog shouted ‘Dad is coming back, Dad is coming back,'” she says. “It was very emotional. We are taking drawings made by Almog to bring to Or.”
