As the new academic year begins this Sunday, hundreds of families of hostages will start school while their loved ones remain in Hamas captivity in Gaza, approaching nearly a year in confinement, said the statement released by Hostages Forum.
Students throughout Israel will attend school wearing yellow shirts, symbolizing the nation’s support for a deal to bring back the 107 hostages – the living for rehabilitation, and the murdered for proper burial.
Tonight on the eve of the new school year, the Hostages Families Forum will hold a support rally under the slogan “This Is a Lesson for All of Us to Learn”
