Many hostages, including children, were deprived of adequate food and suffered from malnutrition.

The hostages returned home malnourished, infested with lice, ill, injured, and deeply traumatized. The accounts of their captivity corroborate one another, suggesting that Hamas and its allies planned to take hostages.
