Abduction during the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel
Naama Levy (Hebrew: נעמה לוי) is a 19-year-old Israeli soldier serving in the Israel Defence Forces. On the morning of 7 October 2023, during the Hamas attack on Israel, militants abducted her from the Nahal Oz kibbutz military base.
Later that day, Hamas released footage on social media showing Levy in the Gaza Strip, with her hands tied behind her back, as armed militants dragged her from the trunk of a Jeep and forced her inside the vehicle. One of the first viral videos of the 2023 Israel–Hamas war,[1] the footage showed Levy with multiple visible injuries, including a gash on her Achilles tendon and a large bloodstain on the seat of her gray sweatpants, which led to widespread concern that she had been raped or sexually assaulted.[2][3]
As of May 2024, Levy is presumed to be among the hostages held by Hamas in Gaza and her family continues its efforts to secure her release. Images from her abduction have come to symbolize sexual violence against Israeli women during the attacks.
