Yael Raz-Lahiani is feeling “happiness filled with suspense” as news breaks of the return to Israel of three members of her Kibbutz Nahal Oz, as part of a group of 14 Israelis who are back from captivity in Gaza.
“We are breathing three sighs of relief. But we are not relieved, not until all seven members of the kibbutz who have been abducted are back,” says Raz-Lahiani, a mother of three, at a press conference at Kibbutz Mishmar Ha’emek near Afula.
Living here are most of the surviving members of Nahal Oz, a small kibbutz of about 400 where 14 people were murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7.
