Holocaust Survivor’s Son, Now Father of Hostage in Gaza: ‘I Believe Omer is Alive’
GEDERA, Israel – The attack on October 7th touches the people of Israel in so many different ways, specifically, the impact on family members of hostages.
Shai Wenkert, the son of a Holocaust survivor, is now the father of a Hamas hostage.
Omer Wenkert’s picture is all around his hometown of Gedera. Hamas captured the 22-year-old from the Nova Music Festival, and he remains in captivity.
His father told CBN News, “He’s a very handsome guy. He likes music. He’s a restaurant manager. And he likes food. He’s supposed to start study(ing) about the culinary food in November, but he’s still captive in Gaza.”
