Many Israeli hostages are being held after the Hamas attack. Their families wait anxiously.
For five days, Yoni Asher has not heard from his wife and his two daughters, Raz, 5 years old, and Aviv, 3 years old. The three were visiting their mother-in-law in a kibbutz near the Gaza Strip when Hamas attacked. The man quickly lost contact with them and discovered they had been kidnapped through a video on social media.
Dozens of people kidnapped during a rave party
He is convinced that all three are in Gaza, still alive, but he has had no news since. “They are small babies, they cannot be kept in captivity like that, these are not conditions for them”, regrets Yoni Asher. Shai Wenkert learned that his son had been kidnapped when he discovered a video. His son, Omer, 22, was at the rave party where dozens of people were kidnapped. He suffers from Crohn’s disease, which requires daily treatment.
