Hamas releases video of them releasing two elderly women<\/h3>\n

One of the two hostages released by Hamas offered an incredible act of forgiveness to one of the terrorists holding her captive, an emotional video shows.<\/p>\n

In an astonishing clip depicting Yocheved Lifschitz, 85, and Nurit Cooper, 79, being handed over by Hamas to the Red Cross, Ms Lifschitz can be seen reaching out with her hand to one of the masked Hamas gunmen. She then told him: “Shalom”.<\/p>\n

The word, which means “peace” in Hebrew, is used by Jewish people to say hello and goodbye.<\/p>\n

Hours after her release, Ms Lifschitz appeared at a news conference in Tel Aviv, where her daughter Sharone helped her speak to the international press. Asked why she shook the hand of a Hamas terrorist, Ms Lifschitz calmly said: “Because they treated us very nicely”.<\/p>\n

Her UK-based daughter went on to explain: “My mum is saying they were very delicate and gentle with them and took care of all their needs.<\/p>\n

“They seemed really prepared, like they had concealed it for a long time. They took care of all the women’s needs, shampoo, conditioner.”<\/p>\n

The 85-year-old also recalled how the captives who needed medical assistance and medicines were followed by a paramedic.<\/p>\n

Ms Lifschitz said the place where she spent the past fortnight was kept “clean”, and the terrorists were “very concerned about them”.<\/p>\n

She said: “They took care of us, we can say that to our credit. They made sure that we could be clean and eat, they gave us pita bread and hard cheese and low-fat cream cheese and that was our food for the entire day.”<\/p>\n
