Father of 9-year-old hostage reveals what daughter told him after her release

Oooh that liar reporter again!!! Im not surprised and not interested to watch 😂 why didnt you got her and had an interview with her!! Is that cuz she is a child and won't be able to lie and act like you 2 do!!

Isnt that the reporter that laid on the ground pretending to take cover lol. She seems so fake. Even in this interview.

Yea maybe she cried because you start to force thoughts on her that she's been mistreated when actually she's not, what he gonna tell his daughter if she know that he wished her dead, a foolish propaganda tool by a criminal state, I really wish the safety for the child

I’m sure she will be a child, but unfortunately the kids and babies who died in Palestine will never have the chance to be children again. May God give them piece in heaven

If it is not in our life experience then certain tragic events will not affect us deeply, I'm sorry but that's just how it is. But the opposite of that scenario is also true. Anyone who is a father and has a daughter, as I have, will tell you that the story of little Emily has ripped their heart to shreds and were brought to tears. Hearing how little Emily cries so intensely and won't let anyone comfort her is gut wrenching. I can hardly bear to imaging what she must have been through so Ive no idea how her father is coping.

Assuming it's true that she wasn't physically abused, that's such a huge relief. Of course if she was, they may want to keep that private.

I imagine that the families whose houses she was shuttled between had to share food with hostages when they didn't have enough. And perhaps they were afraid to show kindness to a hostage child.

Apparently crying causes the brain to release endorphins, so it's not all bad to cry.

There are more than 5000 children from Gaza murdered by bombardments. Would you make also interviews with the victims of the MURDERED PEOPLES RELATIVES? `WHAT KIND OF DISGUSTING 2 FACEDNESS OF THE MEDIA. Peaceful Israel and Palestinians and world needs to unite and solve this.

Clearly from his accent he is not from there. What gives someone the perception that he can move in someone else’s house and expect no repercussions.

He was told by 40 ai generators that she was dead.

When you watch this type of Western media, you are confused about how they present such a blatant, biased and evil narrative, and how will you judge them? Are they so ignorant and naive that they do not see the truth about the occupation and crimes of Zionism, which are the cause of all the tragedies of the Middle East, and are the ones that control them and use them as tools that legitimize murder, occupation, and extermination? Under flimsy names such as the right of the racist occupier to self-defense in violation of the simplest ABCs of law, or are they a group of selfish racists corresponding to this despicable role because the media is the true means of free people and the only truth is that your situation is miserable,😡😏🌵🇦🇪✌️

Who cares, get over with euro leftover drama queens.

it's a dirty war of attrition. What happened October 7, 2023 was part of the plan. Zionists needed an excuse to carry out their dirty plan. Nathanyau and his zionist government are at the cause of the October 7th attack not Hamas. October 7th is a consequence not a cause. Nathanyau and his zionist government are shamelessly using Israeli people by brainwashing them to craft their despicable goal.

Poor father. His pain is so sad😅

Van you imagine what palestinian parents and families are suffering

The sounds of airstrikes must be horrifying for all .I would never wish her to be in such a place .Also,I wish all the Gazan children are also safe and have the chance to live.

😢

Absolutely GUT wrenching 😢

What about 8000 Palestinian children that are killed by Israel in 50 days Israeli terrorist attacks on Gaza?
And every child that Israeli terrorists kills in Westbank? Do CNN hypocrite visit the Palestinian families and ask how they feel and what they are going through?

Clarissa and Jake, we know this is your profession along with your illustrious colleagues at CNN and the CNN Contributors and war correspondents and fellow colleagues at other news outlets, but having to bring this report to the public must have had you teared up at some point, because as any parent could tell you, getting a child back home safe from a kidnapping would be the most emotional moment in one's entire life. Jake, Clarissa, we need to end the Gaza nightmare syndrome. 5 wars in 15 years, come on! Who are we kidding when we say that when the war ends Gaza will go back to being the open prison your former President Jimmy Carter called it? Why can't we get the Palestinians a proper country? It makes no sense to keep this farce going. I have some skin in the game; I am into finding a solution because of the kids getting gipped out of a normal childhood on both sides of the conflict.

This guy claimed he saw the girl's body. Why did he lie? That's somethinf a journalist should ask

With therapy and love and patience she CAN heal.

I remember watching this father devastated on the news when he thought that she was dead. It was heartbreaking. This here just filled my heart with joy for them. If only all families could experience the same.

THIS IS HEART BREAKING. THIS IS THE STORY OF A HOSTAGE CHILD,

THE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN ARE GOING THROUGH EXACTLY THE SAME, WATCHING THEIR PARENTS DIE, DYING, INJURED, NOT BEING HOSPITALISED, BECAUSE THERE IS NO SPACE AND NO FUEL. THERE IS MASS DESTRUCTION, MURDER AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DAMAGE FOR THOSE WHO MAY SURVIVE.

THESE PALESTINIAN PARENTS AND CHILDREN ARE EXPERIENCING THIS IN THE MASSES AND THEY DON’T HAVE AN ESCAPE. THEY CAN’T GO HOME, BECAUSE THEIR HOMES HAVE BEEN BOMBED AND ARE NO MORE. EVEN IF THEY DO NOT DIE, THEY WILL BE TRAUMATISED, JUST AS THIS CHILD, WHO WAS TAKEN HOSTAGE, AND HER FAMILY.

IT SEEMS THAT OUR CORRUPTED WORLD VIEWS ONE CHILD AND HER FAMILY AS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANOTHER / OTHERS. I DON’T NEED TO TELL YOU HOW MANY OTHERS. THE DEATH TOLLS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES, AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE TRAUMATISED SURVIVORS. THIS SPEAKS VOLUMES.

SHE IS NOT INJURED, AND HER HEAD LICE AND WEIGHT LOSS ARE NOT SURPRISING CONSIDERING GAZA HAS A SERIOUS WATER AND FOOD SHORTAGE, WHICH EVERYONE LIVING THERE IS IMPACTED BY. THE CONSTANT ISRAELI BOMBING AND THE FEAR OF BEING BOMBED AND KILLED, IS DEFINITELY ENOUGH TO PSYCHOLOGICALLY TRAUMATISE A CHILD. THIS IS WHAT ALL OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH AS I TYPE THIS.

PLEASE DON’T MISTAKE THIS AS ME NOT HAVING COMPASSION FOR HER OR HER FAMILY. THIS IS ME HAVING COMPASSION FOR HER AND EVERY SINGLE HUMAN LIFE WHO IS CAUGHT IN THIS CRISIS.

Why don’t you interview the Palestinian kids in the thousand held hostage by IsraHell, who are beaten, tortured and starved? May God have no mercy on your biased souls.

Fascinating why non of the interviews with the hostages even after they r safe didn't said a word about hamas torturing them. Infact they said the opposite. Especially the israeli hostages statements are not even broadcasted. Whyyyyy dont they interview any of israeli hostages? what r they afraid of? r they gonna reveal something?
Speaking of trauma,
They ignored 15,000 (FIFTEEN THOUSAND!!!) civilians that were killed WITHIN LESS THAN 2 MONTHS everyday by IDF including children (like they r non existent) and those who lived faced the REAL trauma unlike the media's potrait of trauma.
The trauma those children faced can't be even *WHISPERED*. Their dads pain is incomparable with any other dads. Their whole families being wiped out (not just one member). Their trauma cannot be healed unlike this child's.
But they're stronger & superior as we see. and i think they will heal and live to tell the true story.

Will your boss allow you to take this type of interview with a citizen of gaza who have lost everything including his beloved one?
-Never.
Showing sympathy and being empathetic only for one group of people is not only hypocrisy but also a crime that you are doing deliberately.

Do you guys even interview the Palestinians that have been released from Israhell's prisons? They are not even put to trials, or just being jailed without any reasons (well you know reasons can also be made up by them). Some have been jailed for years, tortured, raped and many have died. Also, who the fuck jailed toddlers or underage children? Yep, only the israhellis.

U liar

Did you ask any Palestinian child "Did you cry when your father was martyred"? It's so unfortunate to see that the people of Palestine are being killed for 75 years and no one is giving any importance to that!

Don’t forget cnn people have brains

I hope this journalist stop interviwing people annd stay home

Israel killed 5000 Palestine children , what do you tell your children about this ?

Palestinian children live this in their daily lifes and no one care about them, maybe it's time to correct yourself and give the same care to Palestinian children and stop worshiping APAC who controls the USA

This woman seems such a drama queen.. why didnt she interview any children hostages released by ITF(israeli terrorst force) ... she seems so disturbed but what about Palestinians who are held hostage?? Palestinian kids who have been shot dead? 8 yr old kids shot dead.. i mean ... wow... only these people are human and Palestinians dont deserve to be mentioned.. wow CNN.. dehumanised an entire people..

Imagine palastains kids in the Zionist Israeli occupation 's prisons with all tortures and crimes.

So the girl was not in the tunnels, and this means that she went through the same thing as the people of Gaza
The sound of explosions, lack of sleep, lack of food, and the danger of being exposed to air strikes. She may have seen terrible things with her own eyes, such as body parts.
