The post reads:

“I cannot ignore what the Israeli media has done to me over the past 24 hours, taking my words out of context. Al Qassam Brigades’ members did not hit me while I was in captivity, nor did they cut my hair; I was injured by the collapse of a wall by an Israeli air strike. I emphasize that no one hit me during captivity, but I was injured all over my body after the airstrike. I am a victim of the October 7th incident, and I refuse to be victimized again by Israeli media.”
