The 28-year-old's loved ones have spent 15 months pleading for her freedom, painting a strong picture of the British-Israeli and what her interests are. Ahead of her imminent release, here is what we know about 'Tottenham lover and best BBQ host' Emily Damari.
British-Israeli woman Emily Damari is finally set to be released today after spending the past 15 months as a hostage of Hamas. The 28-year-old's release, alongside fellow female hostages Romi Gonen, 24, and 31-year-old Doron Steinbrecher, is part of the opening phase of the Gaza ceasefire deal which began on Sunday morning. Ms Damari was in her own apartment in Kfar Aza kibbutz in Israel - two miles from the Gaza border - when she was abducted during the 7 October Hamas attack.
A long wait for freedom In a statement released on Sunday afternoon, Mandy Damari said her 'nightmare is still going on until I see Emily and all the other 98 hostages back in Israel with their families'. 'I have more hope now than I've had in the last 15 months,' she said. 'It would be the most wonderful feeling in the world if she comes back, the most wonderful feeling. But I won't believe it until I see and feel it for myself.
