Israeli Boy Begged Terrorists Not To Take Him Away

Nov 30, 2023

Respond with Christ-like compassion


As several Israeli hostages are slowly being sent back to their loved ones after being held captive for weeks on end …

Israel Hayom describes what happened to one family on October 7 as Hamas raided homes and communities:


Or and Yagil [returned home Monday] to the embrace of their mother, Renana Goma, who never stopped fighting for their return. On that dreadful Saturday, terrorists also broke into the family’s home and abducted the two brothers, Or at 16, and [Yagil] at 12, who were alone in the house.

The brothers hid in a safe room in their home in Nir Oz, and they managed to inform their mother about the intrusion. [S]he heard Yagil saying to one of the abductors, “I’m too small, don’t take me.” ...

Only today does he return to his mother’s arms — while his father remains in Hamas captivity.


It’s heartbreaking to read, see, and hear what Hamas has done to women, children, and the elderly. 

But such atrocities should compel compassionate people like you and me to respond any way we can … to reach out with help and hope amid the suffering.
