Hadas Calderon, whose children Erez and Sahar, along with their father and two other family members were abducted from Nir Oz, arrived back at the kibbutz on Monday and was shocked by the extensive damage caused to the burned houses.
Recently, Calderon was interviewed by Karen Marciano, when during the interview Calderon personally turned to the presenter for help, who did not remain indifferent and responded with a broken heart and choked tears.

"Act quickly, there are children, the old, the handicapped, babies!" cried Calderon. "Damn, act, leave everything, work to return the hostages before any military action. Military operations endanger them, they are in danger. They're in hell, they're in war," Calderon told the camera. Get them out. I turn to Hamas, to Jihad, we are simple people. Free the children, free the elderly, fight soldiers and politicians, not helpless people. It's a disgrace, it's a disgrace to the world!" she cried.
