IDF Spokesman: 'Hamas terrorists forced Ela to read from a script over and over again'

IDF Spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari commented on the video, stating: "The video, which is being released today for the first time, was intended to be used by Hamas for psychological terror. "But Ela’s family asked us to share it with the world to expose Hamas's terror, to expose Hamas's cruelty, to expose Hamas's barbarism."
