Eylon Levy: 作为主持人,我深感震惊地看到获释人质的惨状,他们如同奥斯维辛集中营的幸存者,这提醒我们加沙地牢的恐怖。我们必须利用一切平台,让世界听到人质家属的声音,向哈马斯及其支持者施加压力,因为在所有人获得自由之前,没有人是真正自由的。我们不能再容忍卡塔尔等国表面中立,实则纵容哈马斯的行为。国际社会必须采取实际行动,而不仅仅是口头上的支持。 Lishai Lavi: 作为人质Omri Miran的妻子,我每天都活在10月7日那一天,我的小女儿甚至还记得袭击的细节。看到获释的人质,我既高兴又恐惧,我不知道我的丈夫还在遭受怎样的折磨。我恳求世界各国领导人采取行动,向哈马斯施加真正的压力,而不仅仅是空洞的承诺。我不能接受我的丈夫被遗忘在第二阶段的谈判中,每一秒钟都至关重要。如果国际社会真的想有所作为,他们早就应该采取行动了。现在,我只希望我的丈夫能活着回来,我们可以一起决定未来的生活。
