Journalist Ilana Curiel responded to the call to action and saved two of her friend’s children after Hamas terrorists attacked their home.
Photojournalist Roy Edan’s son Michael, 8, and daughter Amalya, 6, were barricaded in a closet with their mother’s body for hours when they managed to call their uncles and the police to tell them their parents were murdered. .
“Fortunately the children had resources. “They managed to call Roy’s brother, who contacted a special commando unit,” he told FOX News on Thursday.
“I ran over there. “We are talking about the afternoon because everything was chaos, absolute chaos on the morning of that October 7,” she said.
Curiel, a reporter for the English-language Israeli news outlet Ynet, told The US Sun that Edan, with whom she had worked for years, did not respond to her messages the day Hamas launched its surprise attacks on Israeli civilians, and she began to fear what worse.
“I learned that his wife was probably murdered and that his two children were barricaded inside their safe room,” he told the outlet.

“I wasn’t really sure if the children were alive or dead… I decided to run there, hoping that at least two of their children were alive.”
He drove through intense shelling to carry out the task, and described the path he took to pick up the children and take them to safety as the “road to hell,” according to the report.

Edan captured images of the terrorists entering his kibbutz in Kfar Aza when the relentless war between Israel and Hamas began on October 7.
Shortly after, he and his wife Smadar died and the whereabouts of their third child, three-year-old Abigail, remains a mystery.
“We don’t know if Abigail is alive or dead, if she has anyone to comfort her. We don’t know anything,” Curiel told “FOX & Friends First” host Todd Piro.
It is speculated that the terrorists took Abigail back to the Gaza Strip along with hundreds of other Israeli civilians.
