Saving Abigail

Abigail was three years old when Hamas terrorists forced their way into her home in Kfar Aza. After her mother and father were murdered in front of her and her two siblings, Abigail fled — covered in their blood — and ran to a neighbor’s house.

But the terrorists caught up with her and took her, along with her neighbor’s family, into Gaza, where they were held hostage for 51 days.

Joining me on today’s podcast is Abigail’s great-aunt, Liz Hirsh Naftali — who fought with everything she had for her great-niece, and who continues to fight even now that Abigail and all the hostages held in Gaza have come home. In "Saving Abigail: The True Story of the Abduction and Rescue of a Three-Year-Old Hostage," Liz recounts Abigail’s ordeal and her own international advocacy — meeting with presidents and prime ministers — to secure Abigail's release and press for the return of every hostage.

I hope you’ll tune in to hear — or watch — this important conversation wherever you get your podcasts.
