Freed hostage tells David Cunio’s family that they recently saw him alive in Gaza, Hamas fattened up Ofer Calderon after starving him
[IsraelTimes] One of the recently released hostages has informed the family of captive David Cunio that they recently saw him alive in Gaza, Hebrew media reports.

Cunio, 34, was taken hostage from his home in Kibbutz Nir Oz during Hamas’s October 7 onslaught.

David was abducted along with his wife, Sharon Aloni Cunio, 33, their 3-year-old twin daughters, Yuli and Emma, as well as Sharon’s sister, Danielle Aloni, 44, and her daughter, Emilia, 5, who were visiting them for the holiday weekend.

Sharon and the twins were released on November 27 as part of a temporary ceasefire deal brokered by Qatar and the United States between Hamas and Israel. Danielle and Emilia were released on November 24.

Ofer Calderon’s relative says freed hostage lost 55 lb in captivity, was ‘fattened’ by Hamas before release

[IsraelTimes] Recently released hostage Ofer Calderon’s uncle tells the Knesset Health Committee that at one point during captivity, Calderon had lost 25 kilograms (55 pounds), and that once Hamas decided it would release him as part of the ceasefire deal, the terrorists fed him large amounts of food, including rotten vegetables, so he would appear healthier upon release.

“Ofer had a difficult week, starting with a severe flu and pneumonia, to the point that his children could not meet him,” his uncle tells the committee, according to Hebrew media reports.

“Ofer said that three months ago, he weighed 25 kilograms (55 pounds) less,” he says. “When [Hamas] realized that Ofer would be among those who were freed, they fattened him so he would look the way he did.”

“He said that he was forced to eat rotten vegetables,” Calderon’s uncle adds.
