During these years no progress was made in his return, and his family and friends saw the state exert extraordinary efforts to return the rest of the prisoners and missing persons.

"Every New Year I wait for you to come back."

"Three years ago, a Palestinian news agency reported that Israel did not demand the return of Mengistu as part of negotiations with Hamas." Not everyone's child, probably, and only in recent years have I seen awareness of people joining the struggle. "



Abra Mengistu has been in Hamas captivity for 2,541 days.
