01 · THE DISPATCH

Freed hostage Rom Braslavsky was notified while on the road that the Hamas terrorist who held him and ordered his abuse had been killed, according to a report by Amit Segal (N12) published Tuesday afternoon. Braslavsky, who was held in Gaza and released in a hostage deal, reportedly said 'I have to stop on the side' upon receiving the update.

As The Zioneer reported earlier Tuesday, a report by Noam Amir (Channel 14) named the terrorist as the one who both held Braslavsky and instructed his abuse. The Zioneer also previously reported (June 10) that Braslavsky said a guard threatened to kill him minutes before his release. The new report from Segal provides a follow-up: the terrorist has since been killed, and Braslavsky was informed of the development while driving. The specific circumstances of the killing — whether in an IDF operation, strike, or other action — are not detailed in the report.
