The Yad L'Achim anti-missionary organization safely extricated a Jewish mother and three children from an Arab village last week, after a 15-year ordeal.

The Arab man promised A. many things before their wedding but reneged on them, the organization noted. He was often not at home for several months, while she was trapped in her home and unable to work. When he was home, he was violent.
A. was stopped at a Samaria (Shomron) checkpoint several months ago, where an IDF soldier noticed her Israeli name. A. broke down and admitted she wanted to leave, but could not, and asked the soldier to help her. The soldier put her in touch with Yad L'Achim, which began to arrange for her rescue.
A. revealed in secret talks with Yad L'Achim social workers that her husband and his family abused her, especially for being Jewish, and that she had been living in wretched living conditions - often among scorpions and snakes. She was also beginning to fear that her Jewish identity would become known, placing her life in danger further.
