Context:

According to international news reports, the turbanov was a real person, although they used the name Alexander “Sasha” Trudakav. However, this estimate comes from a Palestinian media source who was writing from Trufanov’s point of view. Furthermore, he was released in February 2025; Therefore, he was not among the hostages returned in October 2025 as part of a ceasefire between the Israelis and Hamas.

In October 2025, Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire that went into effect on Oct. 10. The deal saw Hamas release the last surviving Israelis from their Israeli captors. The agreement also led to a temporary reduction in the two-year conflict, which left much of Gaza empty.

After the exchange, some social media users said that one of the released Israeli hostages praised his captors for how they treated him. For example, a certain Instagram user (saved) said that the envoys of Alexander Tubinov released a statement describing the “kindness,” “Humanity” and “respect” he received.

The rating also appeared on X (reserved) and Facebook. The last post, and one of the X Post (archived), added that this turbanov made this statement after the seam was removed in October 2025. The highly alleged statement in full read:

Your kindness will fill my soul forever. I spent 498 days among you. Despite the oppression and anger you endured, I learned from you the meaning of masculinity, pure courage, humanity and respect for values. Even in exile, you were free, while I, free, am a prisoner. He protected my life. As he treated his sons with love, he took care of my dignity, health and honor.

Even though I was in the hands of people who fought for their country and freedom was stolen, and when my government did the worst scrutiny because of the besieged nation, you did not spend badly or humiliate me.

I saw the true meaning of manhood in your eyes. I understood the importance of self-sacrifice by living among you. I have seen you smile even in the face of death, resisting an enemy armed with weapons of mass destruction, when you have nothing but your body.

Try as I might, I could not find the words to truly express your worth and character, or to express my wonder and admiration for your good character.

Does your faith really teach you to treat prisoners this way? How great is that belief that raises you to such a level that all man-made laws of human rights fall, and all war policies pale in comparison to your example.

Even in the most difficult situations, your justice and his mercy come out – not as slogans, but in your real behavior. You will never back down from your principles, no matter how dark the circumstances.

Believe me, if I ever come back, I will live among you as a dedicated disciple, because I have learned the truth from your people. I have seen that you see not only the owners of the land, but the owners of principles and justice.

The turbanov, the freed Israeli seamstress – the name of the freed Israel – Alexander’s name was “written” in the Russian and Israeli media – it would have been a person who was translated – However, he was not among the hostages released in October 2025 and he did not release this statement. Trutshanav was actually released months earlier in February. We measured this claim by saying.

The origin of the measure

Khaled Safi, the winner of the Palestinian media, was the real source of the measure. SAFI sent this passage in Arabic to X (archived) in February 2025. Although not verbatim, the automatic translation of the communication more or less corresponds to the Trubulav estimate in October.

In the following posts (saved, saved, saved), it was clarified that Safi) that these words were his, not Trumbanov’s, although he said that he wrote them with Trufanov’s opinion.

Many international media outlets reported that Trufanov was among the Israeli hostages released in February 2025. The Israeli Army’s Facebook page also posted a video showing a meeting with his family this month. Therefore, he was not among the Israeli hostages released in October.

Trutshanav spoke publicly at least twice during his release and when he remained silent he was released in October, according to Israeli media reports. Both times, once in March and once in April, Trutshanav advocated the evacuation of the remaining Muslims, saying that it should be a national priority for Hamas. It is impossible to find any evidence that he reconsidered his conditions while in exile at the same time.

In April 2025, while meeting with Trufanov and his family, Russian President Vladimir Putin highlighted his country’s role in the release of Trufanov and said that he thought “we should express our gratitude to the leaders of Hamas and the political wing for obtaining this action of ours.” Trutshanav himself did not express the same sentiments, and instead refocused on allowing the release of the remaining hosts.
