"Close your eyes and honestly it costs us dreams": Sapir Nahum's family on Shabbat without her
The search for Sapir Nahum, 23, from Acre, continues and enters its tenth day.
"It's very hard for us we feel helpless, there is no news," her aunt said.
"Her daughter feels the lack and in recent days has started asking for more from her mother. Her baby also keeps saying 'mother', 'mother'."

The search for Sapir Nahum continues today (Saturday) and enters its tenth day.
Concern for the well-being of 23-year-old Nahum from Acre is growing and her family members spend another Shabbat without her.
"This is a second Saturday that she is missing and we are having a hard time with it, it is very difficult for us," Hoodia said to her aunt.
"There is no news and our feeling is of helplessness and utter uncertainty."
Hoodia said that in recent days Sapir's daughter has started asking for more from her mother.
"She's probably starting to feel," she shared.
"Her baby also says 'mother', 'mother'. I canceled my daughter's bat mitzvah event which was supposed to take place this coming Wednesday. This is my only daughter and she is so connected to Sapir and her child so we decided not to celebrate until we knew what happened to her."
Hoodia added that her daughter told her that she did not stop dreaming about Sapphire all night.
"Following this disappearance, my daughter is also going through days of hell," she noted.
"We close our eyes and honestly it costs us dreams."

"We all hope that they will already put the GSS in the picture.
We beg.
Hope something is already found.
It's not true that someone like that disappears as if swallowed by the earth.
This is already the tenth day and time is not working in our favor here at all.
Every minute and every second that passes is neither in our favor nor in Sapphire's favor.
We did not go to the search area because we have no way to get there.
The police are less up to date and do not share with us what is happening.
"I can understand that they talk as little as possible so as not to disrupt things, but I beg them to listen to us as well - we get all kinds of messages from people about possible places she might be and I would like them to go and look in those places."
The field searches for Nahum are conducted by several dozen people, most of them volunteers and members of the national dog unit.
"It must be noted that from the city and the municipality, everyone hugs us and wraps and supports everything that is needed," the aunt adds.
"It means everything to the community in Acre - both Jews and Arabs. There were those who took this story in all sorts of directions and I say that generalizations should not be made."
"It costs us dreams."

The traces of Nahum, a discharged soldier and single mother, have been missing since Thursday last week.
In the security camera footage from the day she disappeared, she was seen ascending, descending and ascending again, and then also walking towards the house where she lives with her mother and sister - but did not get there.
On Friday last week, police arrested Khalaila on suspicion of involvement in her disappearance - and released him that day.
On Saturday, due to a development in the investigation, she was arrested again.
He denies what is attributed to him, but does not deny that he is the last to see her.
