Tzvika Mor, the father of Eitan Mor who was released from Hamas captivity after 738 days in the tunnels, published a moving post on social media ahead of the Sukkot holiday. A year after his son was still in captivity, he shares his feelings: "Last Sukkot eve I didn't even know if my son was alive. This year there is no empty chair - Eitan is here, at home." Mor thanked God, the heroic soldiers, and the people of Israel who never stopped praying. The post also incorporates the perspective of Itamar Itam, who was placed in the Religious Zionism party and was in Gaza last year, describing last Sukkot on a mission to defeat the enemy and bring back the hostages. Itam refers to the thousands of reservists still on the front lines and salutes them and the families on the home front.
