In this heart-wrenching episode of State of a Nation, Rebecca Bohbot, wife of hostage Elkana Bohbot, joins Eylon Levy to share her family’s unimaginable story. For 664 days, Elkana has been held in Hamas captivity after being abducted from the Nova Music Festival. Starved, tortured, and still alive—Rebecca now speaks publicly, demanding the world not forget her husband or the other hostages left behind.
In this emotional and urgent conversation, Rebecca recounts:
•The day Elkana was taken, after staying behind to help others escape
•Why she initially stayed silent—and what made her speak out
•The horrific conditions Elkana is enduring underground in Gaza
•The heartbreaking toll on their five-year-old son, Re’em
•The global indifference that’s prolonging the hostages’ suffering
Rebecca’s testimony is a raw and powerful reminder of what’s at stake in this war—not just for Israel, but for the soul of the free world.
🎯 “They put a photo of our son on the tunnel wall—to torture him with what he couldn’t have.”
