the cousin of Carmel Gat one of the hostages found murdered overnight M thank you very much for joining us in our condolences to you today thank you I can only imagine what's going through your mind and how you're feeling right now what where were you when you heard the news with the family actually it started very bad we were eating lunch in a restaurant and then suddenly I started receiving so many phone calls and messages say is it true is it true and I didn't even know what they're talking about and then I had a phone call that they were asking me if I saw the the telegram or something and I said we didn't hear anything nobody knows anything let me call my family my cousins and I talked to Alon Alon is carel carmel's uh brother and they were all actually when I called Israel they were all in the rally like every Saturday in Israel and they they all all of them said they don't even know what I'm talking about about the rumors about 30 minutes an hour after I talked to them the IDF said that yes it was true but to find out like this I broke down I didn't know how to react because I didn't hear it in any official News Channel yet anywhere I I can only imagine how how shocking that must have been because you've held out hope all this time the Hope was real it wasn't just saying we have hope we knew that she can be home on her feet the same way she was kidnapped on her feet and it's proven she was on her feet until two weeks ago when Kamas just decided suddenly after her 300 or more than 300 horrific nightm days you know that they're all been through to just not only murder them but brutally murder them and then live their bodies in the tunnel now Hamas has all they all they needed to do is set them free that's all they needed to do Hamas is saying that they would be alive if it if it weren't for the Israeli government if the government had agreed to the ceasefire that they said they had said yes to uh who do you think is to blame for this is it the Israeli government or is it Hamas both I see it as two evil pharaohs you see what my shirt says Let My People Go and this say is not from now this saying is when Moses came to pharaoh and told him that God said let our people go all he had to do is let our people go and everything could be avoided all the other side needed to do is just say yes to whatever was offered because human life civilian life are not politics and they are not for tray you cannot have any good consequences from since October 7 doesn't matter what you will do it's a lose lose situation but he could have choose the the less worse consequences if he just agreed from the beginning because fighting War can start and be anytime the timeline that we have to bring people alive back home from captivity is not whenever you want they're dying there if they either dying from starvation from not having their medication from their wounds like Romy gonen still so wounded from the Nova Festival in our hand so many other people that have been shoted are Israelis ready for some kind of a ceasefire deal do they want the prime minister to agree to something I'm going to say it like this Israelis want a deal we have been wanting a deal since the beginning anything once it became politics everything was set aside and everybody started to only care and talk about elections and how it's going to affect them that's how we see it like I said it's a loose lose situation there is no right and wrong in a in a circumstances that you cannot even compare it to anything that anybody have experienced in our life you know in the last 75 years since the Holocaust now you've gone through many Israelis and manyam people have gone through an horrific tragedy with this you lost your ant as well there's still 100 up to 100 people almost being held hostage one 101 thank you um what will it take to bring them home either the IDF GNA continue be our Savor and find them from any information they get or the government will say yes to a deal and Y will say yes to the deal there's no other option the only other option is to ignore whatever is going on right now and to do something even more horrific and to wipe out Gaza but nobody wants that nobody wants that again I've been saying it every interview every rally every time I've been speaking to people all of this could have been avoided it can still be avoided if only our people come home Israel does not want a war we do not want to send our brothers and sister to die and definitely not to go and kill our military is there to protect not to attack I have no words I don't know how I got to this place almost a year I've been saying I want to go back to my anonymity I wish it never happened they took two beautiful women that did nothing wrong to anybody in their life kit my aunt help all the time to bring sick people from Gaza to Israel they gave them in the kibo they gave them jobs he went every Saturday to capan in Tel Aviv and fought for two countries for two you know for our two Nations she believed that peace can happen that they can live in coexistence and she was brutally murdered my cousin Carmel such a loving human being she's an occupational therapist she's a yoga Master you all know the story that she took care of the kidnapped the children she did yoga with them when they were in the tunnels she created diaries with them so they will know what day it is and what they're going through she practiced mind mindfulness with them and she gave the little food that she had to them when her group that she was with in the beginning were all released she was left behind and the Kamas told her tomorrow you're going home you're next that door never opened right now she was supposed her name was on the list for the deal that was been discussed since July that's why if you ask me why she's with this specific group of people because the other five people were kidnapped from Nova Festival carel was kidnapped from kib they only created this group because they they started creating groups for releases and because the military the IDF succeeded to rescue the Israeli beduin FDI to bring him safely home they were just in the tunnel next to him they were in the rich of your hand and when they they successfully rescued FDI then the terrorist decided we're going to murder all these six and we're going to run away and that that's what happened man but they wen't these six kidnapped that were murdered they didn't just been head shot they were brutally murdered with their hand ties tied they were beat they were thrown to the wall they were even in their last hours they suffered horrendously and for what all you had to do is let them go everything could have been avoided but I can promise you this none of us going to stop not even after the rest of the 101 hostages murdered or Alive who will come home it's not going to be over because we cannot forget and we will never forgive and the people that need to be put on trial whatever trial you want to call it they will be put to trial like the Jewish people found every single Nazi after second war even if it took them years to fight find them it doesn't matter under what rock or in which hole they were they're hidden we found them so all the people that are involved in this you will be found and you have been found so we will not stop man thank you until all of us will have our family back home and thank you for joining us and again our condolences uh about your cousin in the news but thank you for talking to us today and sharing her story thank you so much for having me thank you it's Mayan Chevy the cousin of Carmel gat
