Neta Heiman's mother, Ditza, lived in Kibbutz Nir Oz until October 7th, when it was invaded by Hamas Terrorists. She talks about her mother and what happened on video.

"My mother was abducted from her home on Saturday morning.

"At 4pm my sister called me, crying. Someone answered my Mom's phone: 'It's Hamas, it's Hamas.'

"When I imagine my mother there, she's taking care of everyone. I imagine them caring for all the children. That's my mother. She'll take care of everyone if she only can, if they only let her."
