Editor’s Note: Editor’s note: Lishay Lavi’s husband Omri Miran, father of their two daughters Roni and Alma, was kidnapped by Hamas on October 7 and remains captive in Gaza. I hope that you’ll return to Roni, Alma and me. Lishay Lavi and her daughters Roni and Alma with a poster of their kidnapped husband and father Omri Miran. You told me that you love me, and then Roni tried to run to you. But do know that while some are silent, and some are hateful, many others are loud and full of love.

Lavi has to answer her two year-old daughter Roni's increasingly insistent questions about what has happened to her father. "At first she thought that 'Daddy went to a treatment,' because Omri is a shiatsu healer. And after today, she said, and this is what we told her until now, 'Daddy got lost.'" "I need my Omri back, I need my man back. I need all the world to understand that Omri, (was) taken from our home, in his boxers, without shoes even, and we need him back."

But for my family, there will be no end to this pain and no peace until the 240 hostages that Hamas kidnapped are rescued. Omri, Lishay, Roni and Alma are not political pawns; they are human beings who deserve to be reunited as a family. But amid the chaos and complexity of this conflict, the hostages must not be forgotten. Taking hostages — civilians, including babies, children, the disabled and the elderly — is a grave violation of the Geneva Conventions. Addressing the plight of hostages is not a diversion from the broader political and military issues at the heart of the Israel-Hamas conflict.
