Ilay David, 26, has flown with Orit to the UK to highlight the plight of his brother. Evyatar had the chance to flee the Supernova music festival, held in the desert just three miles from the Gaza security fence. But he stayed behind to help the wounded and to try and help others escape. He too is now a hostage.His brother is all too aware of the difficulty in getting him out. “He’s a young man, which probably means Hamas has written him [down] as a soldier, which he is not,” said Ilay, “And that’s so upsetting that he’s the last one in the food chain, although he has done nothing to harm anyone. The only crime he committed was to celebrate at a festival alongside so many others that were just living their lives.
“It’s crazy we’re bargaining on men right now. Hamas is choosing who to let go, they’re doing it very smartly. They know that as time passes the international community will lose interest. We are actually so afraid and more than 100 other men will be forgotten. All the time it feels urgent.”
