Emily Damari, one of the three Israeli hostages released from captivity in Gaza, lost two fingers during her abduction by Hamas, Israeli media reported on Sunday, citing her family.
Damari was released along with two other women on Sunday after 471 days in captivity.
Images from a video call between the 28-year-old woman and her relatives also showed her bandaged hand.
Another photo of Damari and her mother published by the government also showed her apparently injured hand.
Damari has both Israeli and British citizenship. She was abducted from her home in Kibbutz Kfar Aza during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, 2023.
In the images from the video call with relatives, she was seen beaming as she was reunited with her mother Mandy.
