„Free the Children Now!“

On November 15 and 16, 2023, a group of relatives of hostages abducted in the Gaza Strip visited Germany.

In the course of Hamas' brutal terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, over 200 people were abducted to the Gaza Strip and have been held there for over five weeks. Among the hostages are at least 34 children. 20 of them are now orphans without knowing it, as the terrorists killed their parents. Impressive initiatives have been formed in Israel to free the hostages, which have also met with a great response internationally. On November 15 and 16, 2023, a group of relatives of hostages abducted in the Gaza Strip visited Germany: Gilad Korngold, Avihai Brodutch and Batsheva Yahalomi Cohen with their daughter Yael. All of them had family members - partners, children or grandchildren - abducted to the Gaza Strip. Talks were held with the Qatari Embassy, Bundestag President Bärbel Bas, Finance Minister Christian Lindner, the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Michael Roth, and the Deputy Chairman of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group for Foreign Affairs, Johann Wadephul, as well as other members of the Bundestag and the Federal Chancellery. The delegation also took part in the commemoration of the Reichspogromnacht in the Berlin House of Representatives. A press conference was held at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation on Wednesday afternoon.
