Hamas hostages ordeal: Mother of abducted children recounts her harrowing story
As the war in Gaza enters its 200th day on Tuesday, nearly 130 hostages remain in the enclave.

For more, FRANCE 24’s Delano D’Souza is joined on set by Hadas Jaoui Kalderon, former resident of Kibbutz Nir Oz in Southern Israel – targeted by Hamas during the October 7 attack – and author of "52 Days Without Them". She speaks about the captivity of two of her children, siblings Sahar and Erez Kalderon who were kidnapped from their home with their father, Ofer, 53, who remains hostage.
