He says, \u2018Leave it, Mom, the main thing is I\u2019m here.\u2019 But his eyes fill with tears when he remembers that Itay Chen is still there. At every opportunity, he says he wants to put on his uniform and bring him back,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The demonstration was held in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpost.com\/tags\/tel-aviv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Hostage Square in Tel Aviv;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Hostage Square in Tel Aviv<\/a> alongside families of the remaining 13 deceased hostages, recently freed hostage, their families, and friends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;We will never be whole again, but we can be a people who have healed,&#8221; Noam Katz, daughter of Lior Rudaeff, said. &#8220;A people who choose life, who choose light, a people who choose not to give up hope.

While she was in captivity, Grandpa took care of her. He helped her do everything, even though he was also in a bad mental and physical health condition. On the day of her release, my grandfather was the one who told her that she was coming home. And literally within a few moments, the terrorists took Grandma, and they didn&#8217;t have time to say goodbye. And from there they parted ways.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">True, my grandfather&#8217;s time is over, but my time and my family&#8217;s time have come to a halt. It is our duty to return all 13 martyrs who remained in captivity and not leave anyone behind. Not to leave any family behind. We deserve certainty; he deserves a proper and dignified burial on the land of the kibbutz he loved so much. We will not stop fighting, Grandpa. Until the last captive!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Other participants included Zamir Haimi, uncle of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/articles\/friend-slain-gaza-hostage-tal-214030639.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Tal Haimi;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Tal Haimi<\/a>, a member of the Nir Yitzhak readiness class who had recently returned to Israel; Silvia Cuneo, mother of the former hostages David and Ariel Cuneo; and Renana Gome-Yaakov, mother of the former hostages Or and Gil Yaakov.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/articles\/former-hostage-matan-angrest-forced-010907989.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anat Angrest talked during a rally in Tel Aviv&#8217;s Hostage Square on Saturday, demanding the release of the remaining Gaza hostages.
