Israeli Families Keep Bedrooms of Kidnapped Loved Ones Untouched

Nine months after Hamas abductions, the rooms remain a poignant reminder of those still missing.

Hamas militants kidnapped around 250 Israelis on October 7, with many taken directly from their homes.
The Israeli army has killed over 38,000 Palestinians while fighting Hamas in Gaza, according to local health officials.
Approximately 120 hostages remain in Gaza, with at least 40 believed dead by Israeli authorities.
Families have left the bedrooms of the kidnapped untouched, preserving them as they were on the day of the abductions.
Some hostages' rooms show signs of violence, while others appear as if their occupants will return any moment.
