In June 2024, The Gateway Pundit reported the liberation of Noa Argamani, a 26-year-old who had endured eight long months at the mercy of Hamas terrorists.
Argamani was seized while attending a nature festival on October 7, when Hamas orchestrated a brutal attack targeting civilians throughout Israel.
A chilling photograph captured Argamani in her desperate moment of capture, pleading with her captors, “Don’t kill me!” as she was taken away on a motorbike, helplessly watching her boyfriend, Avinatan Or, being dragged away.
NEW: Avinatan Or and Noa Argamani reunite after two years.
The couple, whose abduction gained worldwide attention on that fateful day, were kidnapped from the Nova music festival.

After her rescue, Argamani shared her traumatic experience of captivity, labeling her survival a “miracle.”
She recounted, “Every night, I fell asleep thinking this might be my last night. Until my rescue, I couldn’t believe I was still alive.”
Feeling gratitude for her life, she remarked, “It’s a miracle that I survived October 7, the bombing, and ultimately the rescue.”
As an advocate for those still missing, Argamani dedicated herself to ensuring the voices of hostages were not forgotten.
Thanks to President Donald Trump’s historic peace initiative, Noa and Avinatan were finally brought back together.

Noa took to social media to express her elation, specifically acknowledging President Trump.
“Two years have gone by since I last saw Avinatan, the love of my life. Two entire years since we were kidnapped by terrorists, who torn me away from him before the world’s eyes.”
She continued, “Our paths split from that moment; I was held with children, women, and the elderly, while Avinatan was isolated. I was often kept indoors, while he remained in tunnels. Hamas shared proof of life for me, but there was silence regarding Avinatan. I was imprisoned for 246 days, while he remained detained for 738. I was rescued through a heroic operation, while Avinatan was released through a negotiated deal.”
“Against all odds, we have returned home and reunited!”
“Words cannot capture my emotions upon seeing him again after so long. We faced death repeatedly, and now, after two years apart, we will take our first steps together once more in Israel.”
“Finally, we can start our healing journey together. The road to recovery is long; we haven’t fully come to terms with the events of the past two years. Yet we triumphed in our personal battles, and in a larger sense, we won for all who stood with us to reach this day.”
“I extend my profound gratitude to the @IDF soldiers and security forces who have fought tirelessly, risking their lives for us daily. I appreciate our family, friends, and the people of Israel, Am Yisrael, who raised their voices when we could not. Thank you to everyone worldwide who supported us during our darkest days. Special thanks to the US government, particularly @SEPeaceMissions’ Steve Witkoff, @jaredkushner, and the exceptional President @realDonaldTrump.”
“We will never forget the fallen and those murdered, and we will continue to fight until every soldier and hostage returns home for a dignified burial in Israel.”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“This could never have transpired without your support. We are back ❤️”
Two years have passed since the last moment I saw Avinatan, the love of my life. Two years since the moment terrorists kidnapped us, forcing me onto a motorcycle and tearing me away from Avinatan before the eyes of the world.
From that moment, our journey in captivity was… pic.twitter.com/u6uiyHZEeR
