Footage of Adar surfaced shortly after the Hamas invasion, in which she can be seen surrounded by terrorists and paraded through Gaza in a jeep.

Adar's granddaughter, Adva, wrote on Facebook, "Nobody speaks to us, no one knows what to say, we found out all the information from the Internet.

"My grandmother who founded the kibbutz with her own two hands, who believed in Zionism, who loved this country that abandoned her, was kidnapped. Probably dumped somewhere, suffering from severe pain, without medicine, without food, and without water, dying of fear, alone.

"Let this image be etched into the memories of all those in this disgraceful government who are disconnected from reality. Let them understand that there are people here, elderly and children, women and men, with names and families. I want them to not sleep at night and turn over every piece of land until these people come home."
