Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleFormer hostage Emily Hand has described the moment of her kidnapping by Hamas terrorists last October 7, in a video published by The Telegraph.
Irish-Israeli Hand, age 9, was at a friend’s house in Kibbutz Be’eri when terrorists stormed it.
“They threatened us with a knife. If we resist, they’ll kill us,” Emily says in the video.
“They put a blanket over us so that we won’t see and maybe run away. So we won’t know the way back.”
