Former Israeli hostage Tal Shoham spent 505 days in Hamas captivity and was released on Feb. 22. He gave his first interview since returning from Gaza last month in a conversation with Fox News, where he reportedly addressed Hamas terrorists, saying: "If you want to kill me, kill me, but you will not execute me like ISIS.”

Shoham and his wife and children lived on a moshav in northern Israel but were visiting his wife’s parents at Kibbutz Be’eri in the Gaza Envelope when they were all taken hostage by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7, 2023.

Recalling the moment when one of the terrorists forced him out of his car at gunpoint, he said, "I raised my hands, but I refused to kneel."
