Israel-Hamas war: IDF says hostage Noa Marciano was murdered inside Al-Shifa Hospital

IDF Spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari released new details about the death of an Israeli hostage during a press conference on Sunday.

IDF servicemember Noa Marciano, 19, was abducted by Hamas terrorists on October 7.

"Noa was taken into Gaza alive, she was held hostage by Hamas in Gaza City next to the Shifa Hospital," Hagari said. "During ongoing combat, in the vicinity of where she was held captive, Noa’s Hamas captor was killed and Noa was injured."

Hagari said that Noah's injuries were "not life-threatening" and said that Hamas terrorists murdered her inside the Al-Shifa Hospital after she was wounded.

"Hamas terrorists took Noa into Shifa hospital where she was murdered quickly," he continued. "Hamas murdered Noa inside Shifa hospital. Our thoughts are with Noa’s family. We send our heartfelt condolences to Noa’s family. We did not reach Noa in time."

"This has only made the IDF more determined to do everything, everything in our power, to bring all our hostages home," Hagari added.
