When Hamas terrorists took over Kibbutz Nahal Oz on October 7th, Lishay Lavi tried to make sure her family stays safe. She took her daughters, Alma (7) and Roni (2) to the bomb shelter and speaks about what happened next on video.
"I looked into Omri's eyes and told him I loved him, I'd be waiting for him, that I'd take care of our daughters and that he should not be a hero. He told me he loved me.
"They came in through the bathroom window. I was holding Alma. Omri stood by the door holding a knife. About five (terrorists) came in, and asked Omri to stand up. That was the only time my Roni just broke down, and when she saw him leave she just screamed: Nishi wants Daddy. My daddy, my daddy, I want my daddy. I held her back, because she tried to escape and follow him. And then she fell asleep in my arms… and woke up, no longer two years old."
