The Israel Connection: Saving Abigail - Liz Hirsh Naftali
In this episode, Esti Zenati is joined by Liz Hirsh Naftali, author and advocate, whose great-niece, 3-year-old Abigail Mor Idan was kidnapped by Hamas on October 7, 2023, after her parents were murdered. Liz details the tragic events, her transformation into a global advocate and her efforts during the past two years to secure the release of hostages. She discusses the impact on her family, the broader community, and the ongoing fight against anti-Semitism. Her book, Saving Abigail, serves as a memoir and call to action for truth and resilience.
