'I'm begging you': Mother of kidnapped hostages in Gaza begs to take their place

A mother whose two daughters were kidnapped by Hamas and taken into Gaza has put out a plea to take their place.

“I am calling the President of the United States, Joe Biden, and Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, bring me back my girls now!”, the mother begged in a video.

“I’m asking you, I’m begging you, take me to them now – put me in Gaza, I will be the kidnapped 243.”

Sky News host Rita Panahi spoke with author Rabbi Shmuley Boteach about the video.

“None of us will ever get fully to the demonic forces that drive anti-Semitism but Jewish life is so cheap,” Rabbi Shmuley said.

“And you see the look of the mother – it wasn’t even her words which was so painful, it was the look of her face, you can see she hasn’t slept in weeks, you could see the torment, the torture she’s going through.”
