Chinese-Israeli woman ‘kidnapped by Hamas terrorists’, embassy in Beijing confirms

A Beijing-born Chinese-Israeli woman named Noa Argamani was among people abducted by Hamas as the militant group raided a music festival near the border with Gaza, the Israeli embassy in China has confirmed.

“Noa is a Chinese-Israeli … born in Beijing. At the time, Noa was attending a peace music festival in southern Israel when she was kidnapped by Hamas terrorists and taken from Israel to Gaza,” the embassy said on its official Weibo account, the Chinese version of X, formerly Twitter.

A video clip posted on the account showed the 25-year-old screaming “Don’t kill me. No, no, no” while being taken away on a motorcycle from an outdoor music festival near Israel’s border with Gaza, as she stretched out her arms towards her boyfriend being marched alongs by militants.

Argamani, whose mother is Chinese, is among dozens of hostages believed to be in Hamas captivity following the militant group’s surprise multi-front attack on Israel in the early hours of Saturday.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Beijing born Chinese-Israeli woman Chinese-Israeli woman Chinese-born Israeli woman born in Beijing Isaeli woman born in Beijing China Chinese and Israeli woman

Seriously her ethnic makeup is repeated over and over and over. Why?

Because identity pushes clicks, not substance I guess.

Years ago my roommate was a news reporter. He told me about how his newspaper wouldn’t even cover a bank robbery in town because they’re just too common.

“You won’t cover a bank robbery?”

“Only if there’s something weird about it, like the robber wears a George Bush mask or something.”

Over 200 people were taken hostage from this event so I can only think that this article plucked out the “something weird” about her, which is that she’s Asian.

That makes sense. It’s just like how the news never reports on planes landing safely.
