Eitan Avraham Mor (Eitan Avraham ben Efrat), 24, was working as a security guard at the Nova music festival on Oct. 7. He and a friend were helping others to safety when they were abducted by Hamas terrorists and taken to Gaza.
Eitan and his friends from the security team were raised in Kiryat Arba. On Eitan’s birthday in captivity, his family went to the Kerem Shalom humanitarian aid crossing in an attempt to have basic necessities sent over to him.
“This is a complex reality like no other,” said Tzvika Mor, Eitan’s father. “In order to secure our future here, the way to deal with the issue of the hostages is only through showing our strength and power and in no case surrendering to the enemies.” He added that in times of war, Jewish tradition requires an individual to put his welfare second to the welfare of the nation.
