联合国——在以色列历史上最严重的屠杀事件发生三年后,曾在哈马斯囚禁中存活505天的埃利亚·科恩,与他的新婚妻子齐夫·阿布德一同登上联合国讲台。阿布德也是诺瓦音乐节屠杀事件的幸存者。科恩试图向世界一些顶尖外交官讲述他所经历的一切。
UNITED NATIONS — Three years after the worst massacre in Israel’s history, Eliya Cohen — who survived 505 days in Hamas captivity — took the stage at the United Nations alongside his newlywed wife, Ziv Abud, a survivor of the Nova music festival massacre, and tried to explain to some of the world’s top diplomats what he had endured.
“他们不让我换衣服,也不让我洗澡,甚至连吃饭喝水都不允许,”他说。“他们用沉重的铁链锁住我的腿,”科恩在周二以色列于联合国举行的纪念活动上,由菲尔·麦格劳博士主持的一场感人讨论中说道。
"They didn't let me change clothes or to get a shower, even to eat or to drink," he said. "They chained me with heavy iron chains by my leg," Cohen said during an emotional discussion moderated by Dr. Phil McGraw at Israel’s U.N. commemoration Tuesday.
他表示,囚禁者一直开着灯,不让被俘者入睡,并会在夜间多次闯入,大声尖叫以恐吓他们。科恩说,他们不被允许使用洗手间,有时甚至觉得生存几乎不可能。
He said lights were kept on to prevent the hostages from sleeping and that captors would enter repeatedly during the night screaming in an effort to frighten them. Cohen said they were not permitted to use a restroom and that at times survival felt almost impossible.
被解救的人质罗姆·布拉斯拉夫斯基详述了在加沙被囚禁738天期间遭受的虐待和饥饿。但他也多次描述自己如何努力将注意力从暴力中移开,转而思考回家的可能性。
FREED HOSTAGE ROM BRASLAVSKI DETAILS ABUSE, STARVATION DURING 738 DAYS IN GAZA CAPTIVITY But he described repeatedly forcing his mind away from the violence and toward the possibility of returning home.
“不要想暴力。不要想酷刑。不要想所有的一切,”科恩回忆自己当时对自己说,“只要坚持住,保持坚强。也许有一天,你就能回到家人身边。”科恩是2023年10月7日哈马斯发动袭击时被绑架的251人之一。当天,以色列南部约有1200人在家中或诺瓦音乐节上遇害,成为以色列历史上最致命的一天。他个人在那一天失去了48位熟人。他的妻子齐夫则讲述了同一故事中的另一段经历。
"Don't think about the violence. Don't think about the torture. Don't think about everything," Cohen recalled telling himself. "Just continue, stay strong. And maybe one day, you will come back home to your family." Cohen was among the 251 people abducted during the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023 attack, when about 1,200 people were killed in southern Israel in their homes and in the Nova Music festival. It was the deadliest single day in Israel’s history. He personally lost 48 people he knew that day. His wife, Ziv, carried a different piece of the same story.

阿布德和科恩与她的19岁侄子阿米特及其女友卡林一起,在黎明前不久抵达了诺瓦音乐节。袭击开始后,他们最终躲进一个路边的防空洞。科恩说,这个防空洞原本设计容纳约八人,但最后却挤满了29人。
Abud and Cohen had arrived at the Nova festival shortly before dawn with her 19-year-old nephew Amit and his girlfriend Karin. When the attack began, they eventually took refuge in a roadside bomb shelter that Cohen said was designed for roughly eight people but became packed with 29.
哈马斯委员会报告称,10月7日,哈马斯“蓄意且系统性地”实施了性暴力。阿布德告诉听众,随后有40多名恐怖分子向避难所投掷手榴弹并开枪射击。她表示,避难所内的一名男子多次抓起手榴弹扔回外面,直到牺牲。随着袭击持续,科恩用尸体掩护阿布德,这一举动救了她的命。
HAMAS USED SEXUAL VIOLENCE 'DELIBERATELY AND SYSTEMATICALLY' ON OCT 7, COMMISSION REPORT FINDS Abud told the audience that more than 40 terrorists later attacked the shelter with grenades and gunfire. One man inside repeatedly grabbed grenades and threw them back outside before he was killed, she said. As the attack continued, Cohen covered Abud with bodies — an act that saved her life.
“我失去了意识。埃利亚被绑架了,”阿布德说,“七个小时后,我在避难所醒来。我发现自己躺在一堆尸体中。”
"I lost my consciousness. Eliya was kidnapped," Abud said. "And after seven hours, I woke up in the shelter.
她停顿了一下,强忍泪水。“那甚至不能称之为尸体,而是残肢断臂。”阿布德说,她随后发现阿米特和卡琳已经遇难。“我不得不与这些遗体再待上七个小时,”她说。她最终获救,是避难所中七名幸存者之一。
I found myself in a pile of bodies." She paused, fighting back the tears. "It wasn't even bodies. It was body parts." Abud said she then saw that Amit and Karin had been killed. "I needed to sit with the bodies for seven more hours," she said. She was eventually rescued, one of seven survivors from the shelter.
“我们四个人来自同一栋房子,一起去参加音乐节,”阿布德说,“而那天晚上,只有我一个人回到了家。”前哈马斯人质以亲身经历回应哈桑·皮克尔在得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的活动在505天里,她为科恩的归来奔走呼吁,却不知自己深爱的男人是否还能回家。与此同时,科恩表示,在被囚禁期间,他以为阿布德已经遇难。这对夫妇在周二仪式前的几周结为夫妻。
"We were four people that went to the festival from the same house," Abud said, "And I'm the only one that came back home that night." FORMER HAMAS HOSTAGE COUNTERS HASAN PIKER’S UT AUSTIN EVENT WITH HER STORY OF SURVIVAL For 505 days, she campaigned for Cohen’s return without knowing whether the man she loved would ever come home. Cohen, meanwhile, said he believed while in captivity that Abud had been killed. The couple married weeks before Tuesday’s ceremony.

“但现在他在这里了,”阿布德说,“结婚后,我可以对未来充满期待。”她说,她希望未来的岁月里能有“孩子和家庭,因为我们还活着,我们幸存了下来。我们需要过正常的生活。”
"But now he's here," Abud said. "And I can look forward to the future after we got married." She said she hoped the years ahead would include "kids and family because we are here and we survived. And we need to live a normal life," she said.
另一位向外交官们发言的10月7日幸存者是奥里亚·柏林,一名年轻的以色列视觉情报观察员。她在袭击发生前两天刚抵达加沙边境地区的一个基地。柏林说,10月7日早晨醒来时,她以为自己听到的是雷声。
Another Oct. 7 survivor who addressed the diplomats was Oriya Berlin, a young Israeli visual intelligence observer who had arrived at a base in the Gaza border area just two days before the attack. Berlin said she woke on the morning of Oct. 7 believing she was hearing a thunderstorm.
“外面,成千上万枚导弹如雨点般落下,只有一个目标:摧毁我的生命,以及我朋友们的生命,”她说。
"Outside, thousands of missiles were raining down with a single objective: to destroy my life and the lives of my friends," she said.
柏林和其他四名士兵赤脚穿着睡衣跑进一个小型掩体。他们手无寸铁。她说,这些女性起初认为这次突袭会像她们在训练中学过的场景一样——一支小型部队,以色列军队可以迅速将其控制。
Berlin and four other soldiers ran barefoot and in pajamas into a small shelter. They were unarmed. She said the women initially believed the incursion would resemble scenarios they had studied during training — a small squad that Israeli forces could quickly contain.
她说,几秒钟后,他们听到了车辆声和枪声。柏林描述说,大约有60名全副武装的恐怖分子袭击了基地。她提到,在某个时刻,该部队的WhatsApp群组里出现了一条消息,要求士兵们用希伯来语大喊“IDF”,以便以色列军队能找到他们。这种蹩脚的希伯来语立刻引起了怀疑,认为有恐怖分子抢走了士兵的手机。他们保持沉默。
Seconds later, she said, they heard vehicles and gunfire. Berlin described roughly 60 heavily armed terrorists attacking the base. At one point, she said, a message appeared in the unit’s WhatsApp group telling soldiers to shout "IDF" in Hebrew so Israeli troops could find them. The broken Hebrew immediately raised suspicions that a terrorist had taken a soldier’s phone. They remained silent.
柏林说,接着他们听到另一群人高喊,要求士兵表明身份,随后传来一阵枪声,然后一切归于寂静。她说,袭击开始十小时后,特种部队终于找到了他们。
Berlin said they then heard another group shouting for soldiers to identify themselves, followed by a burst of gunfire and silence. Ten hours after the attack began, she said, special forces finally reached them.

参议院已经追思了美国10月7日的遇难者。现在,是时候开始愈合了。柏林说,在得知有多少朋友被杀害或绑架后,她无法再待在家里。尽管有人建议她退出军队,但柏林表示她拒绝了,并作为观察员重返部队六个月,后来转入以色列国防军公共外交办公室。
THE SENATE HAS REMEMBERED AMERICA’S OCTOBER 7TH VICTIMS. NOW IT’S TIME TO HEAL Berlin said that after learning how many of her friends had been murdered or kidnapped, she could not remain at home. Although she was offered the opportunity to leave military service, Berlin said she refused and returned as an observer for another six months before later moving into the IDF Public Diplomacy Office.
“我希望世界看到,以色列国防军不仅仅是电视屏幕上令人畏惧的军事力量,”她说,“它也包括像我这样身高5英尺2英寸的假金发女孩,她只想保护自己的家园、家人和朋友。”
"I wanted the world to see that the IDF is not just an intimidating military force on a television screen," she said. "It was also a 5'2" fake blonde girl like me who simply wanted to protect her home, her family, and her friends."
她说,此后,她曾在各种听众面前发表演讲,从国际组织到高中生,而一些学生告诉她:“因为你们根深蒂固的反以色列敌意,我觉得我在浪费他们的时间。”“但我坚持了下来,”柏林说,“我发声,因为真相需要被听见。”柏林表示,她决定继续发声,是因为那些未能幸存的朋友。
She said she has since spoken before audiences ranging from international organizations to high school students who told her "I was wasting their time because of their deep-seated anti-Israel hostility." "But I stayed," Berlin said. "I spoke because the truth demands a voice." Berlin said her decision to continue speaking was rooted in the friends who did not survive.
在仪式开始前,美国驻联合国大使迈克·沃尔兹私下会见了科恩和阿布德,询问科恩的身体状况,并告诉这对夫妇看到他们“健康且活着”是多么令人欣慰。几分钟后,沃尔兹站在台上,在讲述科恩被扣押期间的一段经历时,情绪明显激动起来。他说,这段经历一直萦绕在他脑海中,挥之不去。
Before the ceremony, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Mike Waltz met privately with Cohen and Abud, asking Cohen how he was feeling physically and telling the couple how good it was to see them "healthy and alive." Minutes later, from the stage, Waltz became visibly emotional as he recounted a part of Cohen’s captivity that he said he had been unable to get out of his mind.
沃尔兹表示,在科恩获释的前一晚,哈马斯试图让他录制一段宣传视频,声称自己受到了良好对待。“他拒绝了,”沃尔兹说。“他立场坚定。他说‘不’。”沃尔兹称,第二天哈马斯再次试图将科恩的获释变成宣传工具,让他站在摄像机前,并指示他举起双手。
Waltz said that on the night before Cohen’s release, Hamas tried to make him record a propaganda video claiming he had been treated well. "He refused," Waltz said. "He held firm. He said no." Waltz said Hamas again tried to turn Cohen’s release into propaganda the following day, placing him before cameras and instructing him to raise his hands.
“他再次拒绝了,”沃尔兹说。“以利亚,我们向你致敬。我向你致敬,”沃尔兹继续说道,声音哽咽。“你是一位自豪、坚强的犹太人。你从未被打败,伙计。”
"He refused again," Waltz said. "Eliya, we salute you. I salute you," Waltz continued. "You are a proud, strong Jew. You're undefeated, man" he said with his voice breaking.

这场人质危机持续了两年多,期间经历了多轮谈判、释放行动和营救行动。沃尔兹在周二仪式后告诉福克斯新闻数字版,他希望这场纪念活动既能承认10月7日事件带来的损失,也能体现自那以来发生的巨大变化。
The hostage crisis stretched over two years and several rounds of negotiations, releases and rescue operations. Waltz told Fox News Digital after Tuesday’s ceremony that he wanted the commemoration to acknowledge both the loss of Oct. 7 and how much had changed since.
“2023年10月7日,就是他们的9·11,就是他们的珍珠港事件,”沃尔兹说。“那一天被残酷屠杀的犹太人数量,超过了大屠杀以来任何一天。”他表示,重要的是“承认这种损失”并“直接听取幸存者的声音”,同时也要审视三年后该地区的局势。
"October 7th, 2023, was their 9/11, was their Pearl Harbor," Waltz said. "More Jews were brutally massacred that day than any day since the Holocaust." He said it was important "to recognize the loss" and "hear directly from the survivors," but also to take stock of the region three years later.
“我们有特朗普总统的20点和平计划。我们有一项联合国决议,旨在建立国际稳定部队,”沃尔兹告诉福克斯新闻数字版。“他决心不再重蹈过去经常发生的覆辙:哈马斯重建,伊朗重新武装,他们再次发动攻击,然后又是一片废墟。”沃尔兹还指出了中东地区更广泛的转变。
"We have President Trump's 20-point peace plan. We have a U.N. resolution establishing the International Stabilization Force," Waltz told Fox News Digital. "He's determined to not repeat what's happened so often in the past, where Hamas rebuilds, Iran rearms, they attack again, and you have this devastation all over again." Waltz pointed to broader shifts across the Middle East.
“伊朗处于守势。黎巴嫩有希望,叙利亚有希望。伊拉克也有希望,”他说。
"Iran is on its back foot. Lebanon has hope, Syria has hope. Iraq has hope," he said.
他说,他希望这次纪念活动能够将“缅怀、视角,以及我认为,为未来规划一条充满希望与和平的道路”结合起来。沃尔茨在台上指出,10月7日事件带来的战略结果与伊朗及其盟友所追求的目标恰恰相反。他说:“10月7日事件完全而且我认为不可逆转地让伊朗及其所有恐怖主义代理势力自食其果。”他同时提到了叙利亚、黎巴嫩和伊拉克的变化,以及以色列地区关系的扩展。
He said he hoped the commemoration could combine "remembrance, the perspective, and I think charting, trying to chart a path of hope and peace for the future." From the stage, Waltz argued that Oct. 7 had produced the opposite strategic result from what Iran and its allies sought. "October 7 completely, and I think irreversibly, has backfired on Iran and all of their terrorist proxies," he said, pointing to changes in Syria, Lebanon and Iraq and the expansion of Israel’s regional relationships. He ended with a message to the audience: "America will stand with the Jewish people." "Be strong.

最后,他向听众传达了一句话:“美国将始终与犹太人民站在一起。”
Be resilient. Be wise," Waltz said. "And know that what you're doing is right.
“要坚强,要坚韧,要明智,”沃尔茨说,“并且要知道,你们所做的才是正确的。请坚守你们的道德准则,并相信本届美国政府——美利坚合众国——与你们同在。”以色列驻联合国大使丹尼·达农则利用这次多国大使和外交官齐聚的活动,将话题转向了主办方机构本身。
Stand with your moral compass and know that this administration, the United States of America, stands with you." Israeli Ambassador to the U.N. Danny Danon used the gathering — attended by ambassadors and diplomats from multiple countries — to turn his attention to the institution hosting it. MOTHER OF OCTOBER 7 HOSTAGE WHO WAS EXECUTED UNPACKS HER GRIEF IN NEW MEMOIR "Even in this building, the U.N. is trying to demonize and isolate Israel," Danon said.
被处决的10月7日人质之母在新回忆录中倾诉悲痛:“即使在这座大楼里,联合国也在试图将以色列妖魔化并孤立起来,”达农说,“他们把受害者变成了被告,把我们的以色列国防军士兵与哈马斯恐怖分子相提并论。”达农表示,他曾从同事那里听到,他对联合国对以色列的批评“过于个人化”。
"They have turned the victim into the accused, comparing our IDF soldiers to Hamas terrorists." Danon said he has been told by colleagues that he takes criticism of Israel at the U.N. ‘too personally’. "Indeed, it is personal," he responded. "My daughter is serving right now in the IDF. My son served as an officer in the IDF," Danon said.

“事实上,这确实与个人有关,”他回应道,“我的女儿目前正在以色列国防军服役,我的儿子也曾担任过以色列国防军的军官,”达农说,“他本应在10月7日位于加沙附近的雷伊姆基地执勤,但最后一刻,他被允许回家过节。”
"He was supposed to be on the Re'im base next to Gaza on October 7th. The last minute, he was released home for the holiday." "That's why it's personal," Danon said.
“这就是为什么这关乎个人,”达农说,“联合国试图将我们所有的儿子女儿——那些为了让我们能自由生活在自己的家园而付出一切的英雄们——妖魔化。所以是的,这确实与个人有关。对我们所有人来说,这都关乎个人。”然而,对科恩和阿布德而言,这场活动最终从地缘政治话题回归到了一个更微小的主题:一个普通未来的可能性。
"The U.N. tries to demonize all of our sons and daughters, our lions and lionesses who give everything so we can freely live in our homeland. So yes, it is personal. It's personal for all of us." For Cohen and Abud, however, the event eventually returned from geopolitics to something much smaller: the possibility of an ordinary future.
阿布德表示,尽管他们深知10月7日及其后505天的经历将永远成为他们生活的一部分,但他们仍希望拥有孩子并组建家庭。
Abud said they hoped to have children and build a family despite knowing that Oct. 7 and the 505 days that followed would remain part of their lives.
当麦格劳问科恩,如果那些绑架并折磨他的恐怖分子正在观看,他会说什么时,科恩只用寥寥数语便给出了回答。“我赢了,”科恩说。“我赢了,而且我还在这里。”随后,他将信息向外传递。
Cohen, asked by McGraw what he would say if the terrorists who abducted and tortured him were watching, needed only a few words. "I won," Cohen said. "I won and I'm here." He then turned his message outward.
“请为自己是犹太人而自豪,”科恩说,“也要为自己是以色列人而自豪。”“我们留在这里,不会离开。”
"Stay proud to be Jewish," Cohen said. "And stay proud to be Israeli." "We are here to stay."
