A call for the release of the hostages
"Noa, who endured 8 months as a hostage in Gaza, continues to advocate for the 115 other hostages still held. We thank her for her bravery and call for their immediate release and reunion with their families."
A photo shared by the embassy showed an inscription written by Argamani, which read, "Bring Them Home Now! Bring my love, Avinatan Or safe and sound."
Argamani was rescued in "Operation Arnon" in early June, named after the IDF soldier was fatally wounded during the daring operation in Nuseirat camp where Argamani was rescued, along with Shlomi Ziv, Almog Meir Jan, and Andrey Kozlov.
