Panamanian Daryelis Denise Sáez Batista, who had been reported missing in Israel and who was later believed to be kidnapped by the Islamist movement Hamas, was found alive on Monday, October 9, reported the Israeli ambassador in Panama, Itai Bardov.
“I am very happy to announce that Daryelis has been found along with her husband,” the diplomat said on his social networks.
Meanwhile, the Panama Foreign Ministry reported that the young woman managed to contact her relatives. “She was in an anti-bombing shelter,” she noted.
