TEL AVIV: Where are my wife and children...I want them alive...Yoni Asher is begging to find his missing family near the Gaza border. Asher's wife, Doron, along with their two young daughters, aged five and three, had gone to visit her mother in the village of Nir Oz near the Gaza border last week.

Hamas terrorists from Gaza started attacking Israeli areas including Nir Oz through the border on Saturday morning. Doran's mother's house was also attacked. Meanwhile, Doron, who was in central Israel, called Asher on the phone and told him that terrorists had entered the house. Before Asher had time to react, the phone hung up. Since then there has been no word on what happened to Doran, the children, or the mother-in-law. Asher says Doran's phone location was tracked and it was found to be in Khan Yunis, Gaza. A video later surfaced on social media showing Doran, her children and her mother being taken into Gaza by Hamas militants along with other hostages. Asher says he wants his family freed and is even willing to surrender himself to Hamas custody for their release.

Asher is not eating or sleeping after the disappearance of his family, and he is going to government institutions and offices of voluntary organizations in Israel requesting help. According to unofficial information, more than 700 people are missing from Israel after the attack. It has been confirmed that at several of them have been taken hostage by Hamas. Their relatives and friends are living in hell without knowing whether they have been captured or killed.
