A Day of Remembrance: 400 Long Days of Captivity

The Embassy of Israel gathered to solemnly mark the 400 long days of captivity for our Israeli hostages held by Hamas.

the 400th day

Today, the Embassy of Israel in Yangon gathered to solemnly mark a significant and painful milestone — marking 400 days since the abduction of innocent civilians by Hamas.

Initially, we had marked the 300th day of their captivity, but as time goes on, the days add up, and the reality becomes even more painful.

The banner that once read 300 Days now reads 400 Days. 400 days is not just a number. 
It represents the ongoing hell that innocent Israeli hostages are going through and the grief their families are enduring. 

This tragic timeline highlights the urgent need for international attention and action. 

Our thoughts remain with those still held hostage and their loved ones, and we  promise to continue our hard working to ensure that they all return home safely.
