People, alleged to be members of the University of Windsor's Palestinian Solidarity Group (PSG), yelled “Hamas are coming” and a number of other statements at a fundraiser in Canada attended by former hostage Noa Argamani on Wednesday, the rescued hostage confirmed on X/Twitter on Saturday.

“Hamas came. Hamas kidnapped me. Hamas murdered my friends. But I won; I survived. Now, I speak for those who can’t,” Argamani shared. “I’ll keep exposing Hamas’s crimes and fighting for the hostages’ release—including my partner, Avinatan.

“I refuse to let terror sympathizers control the narrative.”

A video of the incident shared by Argamani claimed that the alleged PSG members also blocked attendees from entering and exiting the building.

Argamani was attending the fundraiser as part of a trip facilitated by the Jewish National Fund (JNF), according to the Toronto Star.

Noa Argamani's rescue from Gaza

Argamani was rescued from Nuseirat on June 8, 2024, alongside three other hostages: Almog Meir (21), Andrey Kozlov (27), and Shlomi Ziv (40) in an operation named after Arnon Zamora, a soldier who fell during the rescue. 

Argamani’s partner, Avitan Or, is one of 50 hostages remaining in Hamas captivity. The last known sign of life from him was in mid-March.

The pair were abducted from the Nova Music Festival on October 7, 2023, during Hamas's invasion.
