Female hostage seen screaming from the back of a bicycle as she was kidnapped on October 7 'was probably kidnapped by Palestinian CITIZENS who followed Hamas into Israel'

The female hostage who screamed for her life as she was driven into Gaza on the back of a motorcycle on October 7 was likely kidnapped by Palestinian civilians following Hamas terrorists into Israel.

The world watched in horror as a video emerged of Noa Argamani, 26, sitting on the back of a motorcycle, her face etched with fear as she screamed “Don't kill me” at the men around her.

As the motorbike sped towards Gaza, a desperate Noa reached out to her helpless friend Avi Nathan, who had also been arrested at the Nova music festival on October 7. Noa and her boyfriend have not been seen since.

For more than two months, Noa's family has waited helplessly for news that their beloved daughter has survived the Hamas attack and would be among the hostages released so far in a prisoner swap.

But their fears have been exacerbated after it emerged that Noa could have been kidnapped not by Hamas, but by a gang of Palestinian civilians who invaded Israel hours after the terrorists' first attack.

Analysis of text messages, phone records, satellite images and interviews indicate that Noa was taken on a motorcycle by Palestinian civilians who had followed Hamas terrorists into Israel, reports NBC News.

This could be why Noa has not been released along with the more than a hundred women and children taken hostage during last month's ceasefire. Hamas may have no idea where she is if she is being held by civilians.

Along with hundreds of other young Israelis, Noa and Avi were enjoying a peace festival in the desert when they were forced to flee for their lives from Hamas terrorists.

Noa desperately messaged her friend at 8:10 a.m. saying she was in a parking lot and “couldn't get away,” to which her friend replied, “Hide.” Let me know you're okay.' More than two hours later, she told her friend, “We don't have a car.”

That was the last time Noa's friends and family heard from her, with footage showing the festival-goer screaming as she was taken to Gaza on the back of a motorcycle.

For months, her family and the world had believed that Noa had been taken to Gaza by Hamas terrorists.

But analysis of the sun and shadows appearing in the video of their capture, which shows the couple surrounded by men, suggests they were kidnapped several hours after the attack, the news channel reported.

This also points to the theory that the couple was brought to Gaza by Palestinian men who traveled from Gaza to Israel several hours after the attack began.

Her family and friends are desperate for Noa to be found, not least because her mother Liora Argamani is currently battling stage four brain cancer.

They had some hope that she was still alive after seeing a video, posted on October 7, of Noa sitting on a bench drinking from a water bottle while two barefoot people walked behind her.

“In this situation, when you see someone you love so much and someone so close to you, it just drives you crazy,” said Noa's college roommate, Amir Moadi, 29. “Because you can't do anything.”

“Imagine what it is like for her family,” Moadi said last month, revealing that her family only found out she had been snatched when they came across the images online.

“In this situation, when you see someone you love so much and a person so close to you, it just drives you crazy,” Amir Moadi, 29, a roommate and friend of Argamani, said in an interview. “Because you can't do anything.”

Last month, Noa's mother Liora begged President Joe Biden and the Red Cross to intervene and bring her daughter home before she dies, telling her only child, “If I don't see you… just know that I you love. a lot.'

“I have cancer, brain cancer,” Liora said from the family's temporary apartment in Tel Aviv, near her cancer treatment clinic.

'I don't know how long I have left. I wish for the chance to see my Noa at home.

'I call on President Biden and the Red Cross to bring my Noa back as soon as possible so that I have the opportunity to see her.

'Noa, if I don't see you… please know that I love you very much. Please know that we have done everything we can to get you released. The whole world loves you.'

Liora is battling stage 4 brain cancer and her husband Yakov says doctors have no hope.

'I don't want to elaborate on it, but it's not good. The doctors have not given a good prognosis, but I believe it is in God's hands. I believe it will turn out fine.'

Apart from a photo of Noa drinking water in what appeared to be Gaza, which was posted in a Hamas telegram channel, the family has had no news of her safety.

'We know nothing more than what the media has reported. All we have seen are the images of Noa being kidnapped and then sitting on the couch with a bottle of water.'

On October 12, her family sent her a message for her 26th birthday in the “hope it would reach her.”

Noa's grief-stricken father Yaacov gave an interview on Israeli television shortly after the attack.

He said: 'I was hoping this was a mistake and it wasn't true. And then a man in the hospital asked if I wanted to see him. I said yes and then I'm sure it's Noa… she was so petrified, so scared.'

Then he starts sobbing uncontrollably. “I was always so protective, but at this moment I couldn't protect her,” he told Israeli broadcaster Channel 12 News.

'All my life since she was born I have tried to protect her and cuddle her, support her and love her. I wish I could at least encourage her or say something to her in this difficult moment.”

Noa's aunt, Yaffe Ohad, said they were “crazy with worry.” She said: “We know that Noa was kidnapped, probably in the hours of the start of the fighting.”

Along with hundreds of other young Israelis, Noa and Avi were enjoying a peace festival in the desert when they were forced to flee for their lives from Hamas terrorists.

Revelers had gathered for a nighttime trance music rave near Kibbutz Re'im, close to the Gaza Strip, to mark the end of the religious holiday of Sukkot.

But the festivities turned into chaos yesterday morning after Palestinian terrorists began firing rockets and gunfire into the crowd.

Images circulating on social media showed hundreds of people screaming and crying as they fled the rave site on foot, chased by the sound of gunfire.
