You are old and I take care for you.' I didn't believe, but it was like this because he gave me the medication for the foot. They try to keep us with good health, but the foot was not okay and I was very weak.'Sagi said that on the 49th day of her captivity, she was brought to the southern city of Rafah for an expected prisoner exchange, but there was a delay, so she was brought back to a hospital in Khan Younis where she was told she would spend the night.
