Relatives of hostages held by Hamas gathered near a border fence in Israel, desperately shouting messages to their loved ones still trapped in Gaza. The Israeli government has identified seven kidnapped individuals, believed to be alive, from an attack on October 7, 96 days ago. Among them are several American citizens, including a 19-year-old girl named Agam Burger. Disturbing footage released by Hamas shows Agam before and after her abduction, clearly highlighting the dire conditions she has endured during her captivity.
Agam's father, speaking from his agonizing wait for her return, expressed the unbearable pain of not knowing his daughter's whereabouts or her physical and emotional state. He shared the deep fear that Hamas, known to use sexual violence against women, might be subjecting her to unimaginable horrors. The entire family is in distress, with Agam's siblings unable to focus on anything but her absence.
