Gal Piechowicz, an Israeli mother of three, is pleading with the world to help bring home the kids held hostage by Hamas, including her son's best friend.
An Israeli mother who survived Hamas' brutal attack is pleading for the world to help get home the children being held captive, including her youngest son's best friend. Hamas is believed to have taken 229 hostages during the terrorist group's Oct. 7 surprise attack, including at least 20 kids, according to the Israel Defense Forces. Gal Piechowicz suspects 11-year-old Gal Goldstein was among those, along with three of his other family members.
She texted friends to check in and started helping neighbors evacuate from their homes. The stories she heard of Hamas' brutality horrified her. 'They took babies from their mothers' arms,' she said. 'They molested bodies. They tortured kids.' On Oct. 8, Piechowicz fled with two of her kids to a friend's house in Tel Aviv where she's stayed ever since. Her oldest son joined the front lines with the army.
