Jewish Women Celebrate Release of Israeli Hostage Agam Berger by Braiding Challah and Hair
‘This Thursday, in a show of solidarity with Agam and all the remaining hostages, let’s have all of our female students come to school wearing braids,’ posted Fuchs Mizrachi School, an Orthodox day school in Beachwood, Ohio.
When four young Israeli soldiers were released in Gaza over the weekend, the first thing many people noticed about them was their defiant gestures in front of their Hamas captors.
The second was their braided hair.
Some close observers of the hostages concluded that the braids — also seen on some of the children released during a temporary ceasefire in November 2023 — were the handiwork of Agam Berger, who had become the only Israeli woman soldier left in Gaza.
