The mother of Shani Louk, a German-Israeli woman feared dead in Gaza, says that her daughter may still be alive. The mother, who is only identified as “Ricarda”, released a video saying that she was given important information about her daughter’s condition. Despite the unfortunately viral video of her daughter in a twisted and disheveled state with Hamas militants in the back of a pickup truck, Shani Louk may be in a hospital. Shani’s father lives 50 miles from Gaza in Israel proper. A family friend says Shani may be at the Indonesian Hospital in Beit Lahia. Ricarda says her daughter is in critical condition with a head injury and that time is of the essence. She’s calling upon Germany to do everything in its power to return Shani.
