Emily Hand, 8, Irish-Israeli thought killed on Oct. 7, now believed held hostage in Gaza
2023-11-06
[IsraelTimes] Emily Hand, an 8-year-old girl from Kibbutz Be’eri, who was reported killed in the Hamas
...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
assault on October 7, is now believed to be alive and among those held hostage in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
. The family was informed of this by Israeli authorities five days ago, Channel 12 reports.

In the Channel 12 studio, Natalie, Emily’s sister, asks to try to speak directly to Emily, and looks directly into the camera: "I want to tell you that we are doing everything to get you home. We know you are being held hostage. We love you so much and miss you."

Natalie says the family had cried for Emily when they were informed she had been murdered. "We were told that she had been murdered. We were in mourning," she says. "On October 31, they told us that it was highly likely that she had been kidnapped."

Emily was at a friend’s house on the kibbutz on October 7, Natalie says, and her friend and her friend’s mother were also apparently kidnapped. Their family was also initially told they had been killed, Natalie says.

Natalie notes that Emily also has Irish citizenship. She says the Irish authorities have promised to do whatever they can to help.

Their father Thomas had told CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
in an emotional interview on October 12 that he welcomed the news Emily was dead, "because that is the best news of the possibilities that I knew."
There are no words.
