Amid the devastating war in Israel, relatives of hostages have had to learn of their kidnappings through frantic, whispered phone calls, rushed text messages and videos posted to social media. The stakes rose Monday as Hamas threatened to start executing hostages if Israel bombs civilian targets in Gaza. The exact number of people abducted remains unclear. Militants have claimed more than 100, but an Israel Defense Forces spokesman said Wednesday that 60 people had been abducted.
Celine Ben David Nagar, 32 Ido Nagar, 33, said his wife, Celine Ben David Nagar, was driving south from their home in Holon, south of Tel Aviv, with two friends on Saturday when she called him and said she was hearing rocket-warning sirens. She said they would try to turn back to get to a shelter. But then she said turning back may have been a mistake — that “soldiers are coming.” Later, her car was found with its windows smashed and two bullet holes in the door, he said.
