| Daughter of detained Hamas health official says she was abducted by Israel-backed gang and handed over to IDF |

| [IsraelTimes] Gazan nurse Tasneem al-Hams, the daughter of senior Hamas health official Dr. Marwan al-Hams, was released from Israeli prison this afternoon, the Hamas-affiliated Prisoners’ Affairs Office says. The Palestinian Center for Prisoner Advocacy NGO on Monday accused Israel of using al-Hams to pressure her father. Israel acknowledged last week that it had detained the father in July as part of an effort to gather information on the whereabouts of slain captive soldier Hadar Goldin, whose remains were returned earlier this month as part of the Gaza ceasefire after 11 years in the Strip. In an interview with Gaza City-based photojournalist Ahmed Marwan following her release, the younger al-Hams says she was abducted last month by the Israeli-backed, anti-Hamas Abu Shabab gang and handed over to Israeli forces east of Khan Younis. She was moved around the Ashkelon, Ramleh, Damon and Megiddo prisons, she says, adding that in Ashkelon she was placed in a solitary confinement cell and in Damon she was held with roughly 50 other women. The Hamas-affiliated prisoners’ office reported on October 2 that al-Hams, in her twenties, was abducted by a “five-member armed force” from a “medical point south of Khan Younis.” Some Palestinian media had reported she was released earlier this month, but according to the prisoners’ office, citing her brother, a November 16 Israeli order that she be released was not implemented, and she was instead held until today. The elder al-Hams, head of the Hamas-run health ministry’s field hospital division, is still in Israeli custody, after Israel refused to include him among the Gazans who were set free as part of the truce-hostage deal, according to a Hamas source cited. The doctor’s specific location is unclear.
