FREED Israeli hostage Noa Argamani was held in a child’s bedroom in Gaza during her eight months in captivity.

Pictures emerged showing two teddy bears on a tiny bed covered in colourful child’s bedding in the room.

It is in a Hamas-held building in the Nuseirat refugee camp.

Terrified Noa, 26, was snatched from a music festival by the terrorists on October 7 last year.

She became a symbol as a video of her abduction emerged showing her seated between two men on a motorbike as she screamed, “Don’t kill me!”.

Noa has now been pictured reunited with her dad Yaakov back in Israel following a daring rescue mission on Saturday morning.

Israeli forces described it as smooth but a second operation which extracted three other hostages also snatched at the festival turned into a firefight.

At least 274 Palestinians were reportedly killed during the rescue mission as special forces, backed by air strikes, blitzed the Nuseirat camp.

Last night, all four hostages freed were in good health.

But as graphic details of the raid continue to emerge, the death toll has once again ignited widespread criticism of Israel.

Israel say less than 100 died in the rescue mission.

But the EU’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, called it a “massacre” of civilians.

Meanwhile, Israeli war cabinet minister Benny Gantz announced he was resigning from the coalition government over failures on key objectives — including demolishing Hamas.

Half of hamas WIPED OUT since October 7

RUTHLESS militant group Hamas has lost half its members since it began its assault on Israel and murdered 1,200 civilians on October 7.

The terrorist organisation has reportedly been left with no choice but to rely on hit-and-run insurgent tactics to fend off Israeli forces.

Hamas, which rules the densely-populated enclave of Gaza, has been reduced to between 9,000 and 12,000 fighters, according to three senior US officials familiar with battlefield developments.

The group was estimated to have had 20,000 to 25,000 members before it launched its unprecedented attack on Israel last year.

Members of the terror group are now largely relying on ambushes and improvised bombs to hit Israeli targets instead of engaging in sustained battles with Israeli forces.

The shift in tactics comes as Israel’s military closes in on Rafah, a city in the south of Gaza near the border of Egypt where Israel says Hamas militants have been hiding.

Terrorists are believed by Israel to be trying to conceal themselves among civilians, seeking shelter in places such as schools.
