IDF chief rabbi and personnel head visit Goldin home
Outside the family home of kidnapped soldier Hadar Goldin in Kfar Saba, an impromptu rally is taking place in support of the soldier, thought nabbed by Hamas gunmen near Rafah on Friday.
Young people gathered at home sway arm in arm singing “Am Yisrael Chai.” (The people of Israel lives.)
The head of IDF’s personnel directorate and the army’s chief rabbi both make an impromptu visit to the home. No indication is given as to why they are there.
Also at the Goldin home Saturday night are family members of Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Fraenkel and Gil-Ad Shaar, three teens abducted and killed by Hamas members in the West Bank in June.
