This is not a scene from a movie. This is October 7.
Yagil was only 12, and his brother Or was 16, when they were kidnapped from their home in Nir Oz. Terrified, they called their mother and whispered that they could hear voices speaking Arabic and that the door to their home had been broken down.
She could still hear her youngest son, Yagil, pleading: "Don't take me. I'm too young."
Yagil was held completely alone in captivity and was tortured while being held hostage. Until the final day of their captivity, he believed his brother Or had been murdered. Then, just before their release, the two brothers were reunited.
Their father, Yair, was also kidnapped from his home in the kibbutz, together with his partner, Merav. The entire abduction was filmed by the terrorists. Yair was brutally murdered during the kidnapping, and the lynching he endured was also captured on video. In the footage, a three-year-old boy can be seen taking part as his father tells him to kick Yair - and the child does.
After 52 days in captivity, Yagil, Or, and Merav were released in a hostage deal. Yair's body was held captive in Gaza for 614 days before it was recovered in a military operation.
There is only one truth.
Don't you dare forget.
