The community of Kibbutz Be’eri in southern Israel, which was attacked on October 7, has made a heartfelt plea to the Israeli government for the release of hostages still held in Gaza. The kibbutz commemorated the Passover Seder at what is now known as Hostage Square in Tel Aviv, a solemn event to honor the memory of the 100 members and friends lost during the tragic attack.
During the ceremony, Kibbutz Be’eri member Noam Yitzhaki expressed the community's anguish over the loss of children and youth, emphasizing the deep void left in their hearts. Yitzhaki revealed that some kibbutz members were still being held captive by Hamas and urged decision-makers to take all necessary actions to secure their freedom. He stressed that this call was not driven by politics or strategy but by a moral imperative that demanded immediate attention.
