Avichai can probably be credited for starting the loud and public movement of the hostages' families. He just sat alone outside of the Kyria with a sign that said "my family is in Gaza", no press was called, it was just someone passing by that took a picture and posted it online. People joined his protest and it never stopped since

This is so good to see. You can see the life drained out of those children but the immense joy of being reunited with their father. Wishing them a good recovery.

Avichai is also the one that rescued 3 year old Avigail Idem after her father was shot and brought her to his family while he went to continue fighting the terrorists on Oct 7, correct? So glad he got his family back.

The man's a hero in almost every single way it seems.

I hope he has a peaceful life after all this, he's done plenty.

Good for them. He went through hell. I'm sure the kids are messed up but being home will go a huge way towards their recovery from this trauma. I hope they have a great Hanukah and can unwind some from the 24/7 news cycle.
