Argamani herself had become, in spite of herself, the symbol of that 7 October. In a video she appeared being dragged on a motorbike by Hamas terrorists while screaming: “Don’t kill me”. Argamani hugged his father again today and the video is already going around the world. He also received a phone call from Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu: “Not for a minute did we stop thinking about you and we didn’t give up. I don’t know if you believed us but we we didn’t give up.”
