An Israeli mother whose 28-year-old son, a hostage taken by Hamas, was mistakenly killed by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), recorded an unforgettable message of support for the IDF.
Iris Haim, whose son Yotam was seized by Hamas terrorists from Kibbutz Kfar Aza on October 7, was killed on December 15 along with two other hostages, Alon Shamriz and Samar Talalka. The three men were mistakenly taken as a threat by the IDF, which is conducting an investigation.
But instead of condemning the troops, Iris Haim recorded this message of support:
Hello to the Bislach Brigade, battalion 17. This is Iris Haim. I am Yotam’s mother. I wanted to tell you that I love you very much, and I hug you here from afar. I know that everything that happened is absolutely not your fault, and nobody’s fault except that of Hamas, may their name be wiped out and their memory erased from the earth.
I want you…
