After the 'Sign of Life' spread by the terrorist organization Hamas: In an interview given this evening (Sunday) by Avi Ohana, the father of the kidnapped Yosef Haim Ohana, to 'Kol Barama' radio, a difficult picture emerges of a family struggling between hope and despair, between faith and disappointment.
This is the 15th time it's happening! The big raffle for a Torah scroll and prizes worth 150,000 NIS
""This is the second video we've received in the last two months," Ohana said painfully. "I know my son, when he says something he means it, and it doesn't matter if Hamas dictates the words, but they are in great distress there. We are very disappointed with the decision-makers who promised us things and they are still there.".
Despite the hardship and deep disappointment, Ohana finds strength in faith. "We are ultra-Orthodox people and trust only in God, but maybe he is God's messenger to open a gate for us," he said.
The father also explained the change in the family's approach towards the media: "At first we went to the media less and agreed to publish videos, but after so long there is no choice.".
During the interview, Ohana revealed a moving conversation he had with Ohad Ben Ami, one of the survivors of the captivity: "Ohad Ben Ami told me: 'I am a kibbutznik and I tell you to keep praying. We felt the prayers in captivity. Every day in captivity we felt divine providence.'".
