Nega Berger, one of the authors of the report that dealt with sexual and gender-based injuries from Black Sabbath, was interviewed this morning (Wednesday) on 103FM, where she referred to the interview of Amit Sosna, who was released from Hamas captivity and told about the sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of the terrorists.
"Choosing to stand up openly for our brothers and sisters in captivity is truly an act of heroism, certainly from someone who has already paid such a high price," she said of Sosna.
According to her, she was not surprised by her revelation from the testimony itself, but by Berger's willingness to be revealed.
"It's a kind of heroic act," she said about it.
"We know that these things happen, we also described it in our report, but this very disclosure, that is, the full story, the choice to come forward with open faces, first of all for our brothers and sisters in captivity, is truly an act of heroism, certainly from those who have already paid such high prices
"The testimony itself repeats details we have already heard, it simply gives them a face," explained Berger. "While we are dealing with denial, this investigation is built like cast concrete, it gives a very comprehensive picture.

She also said about the testimony, that "in terms of the patterns, they repeat themselves. This is part of what we saw. Even with the attacks of the sexual abuse of the October 7th, I don't know if they will ever be revealed to us in full, because a large part of those who went through this abuse were murdered. In the cases These are the bodies that spoke or those who were able to witness it. The possibility of hearing it now in full is dramatic, I sincerely hope that it will take down the token in the world as well, but first of all here - to understand that this lawlessness must be stopped and bring everyone home, immediately.
"Amit speaks That she knows that her life depends on this person at every moment.
The use of physical violence, the threats, God forbid I do not produce a rating, but the seventh of October overwhelmed and caused many difficulties even among those who were harmed in the past.
We saw very clear patterns here, first and foremost there is the threat of weapons, which is also part of the story here."
"A large part of those who went through this abuse were murdered."

Regarding the impact that Sosna's testimony may have in the media, she said that she "wants to hope that there are those who will not want to and will not agree to listen, but there is a very large audience that really says, the shortage inside, it was part of our mission to say 'there are things that repeat themselves.' It's easier for all of us to connect with the face, there. There is something in the concreteness of things, and also really in the work, the very choice to bring a voice here, and not just a colleague interviewed in this investigation, there is a whole line that confirms things and gives more angles. We have to do everything so that everyone comes back."
