A little video popped up on my Facebook feed, I am sure many of you will have seen it, and I am unable to copy it onto here,
but this is the wording:
" Hundreds of residents from the Eshkol region gathered today at the Gama Junction to accompany the convoy carrying the coffin of a kidnapped victim whose body was recently returned to Israel.
While official identification has not yet been confirmed, Hamas has claimed that the body belongs to the late Hadar Goldin, an IDF soldier who was killed and taken in 2014. "
We do now know that it was the return of Hadar Goldin.
I found it very moving.
I also saw a post saying:
Hadar Goldin’s unit — the same soldiers who were with him in 2014 when he was kidnapped by Hamas — have spent this year on reserve duty receiving the coffins of fallen hostages. Today, they received his.
After 11 years, his unit finally brought him home.
