Journalist Ilana Curiel responded to the call to action and saved her two friends’ children after Hamas terrorists attacked her home.
Photojournalist Roy Edan’s son Michael, 8, and daughter Amalya, 6, were barricaded in a closet with their mother’s body for hours as they managed to contact their aunt, uncle and police to tell them their parents had been killed.
“Fortunately the children are smart. They managed to get a call to Roy’s brother who is in contact with the special commando unit,” he told FOX News on Thursday.
“I rushed there. We are talking about the evening because everything was chaos, absolute chaos on the morning of October 7,” he said.
Curiel, a reporter at the English-language Israeli news channel Ynet, told The US Sun that Edan, with whom he had worked for years, did not respond to his messages on the day Hamas launched its surprise attack on Israeli civilians, and he began to fear the worst. .
“I got word that his wife may have been killed and his two children are barricaded in his safe room,” he told the outlet.

“I wasn’t sure if the child was alive or dead… I decided to rush there, hoping that at least two of his children were still alive.”
He drove through heavy gunfire to carry out the task, describing the road he took to get the children and get them to safety as “the road to hell,” according to the report.

Edan captured images of terrorists entering his kibbutz in Kfar Aza as the relentless war between Israel and Hamas began on Oct. 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 dead or alive, if she has someone to comfort her. We don’t know anything,” Curiel told “FOX & Friends First” cast member Todd Piro.
There is speculation that the terrorists took Abigail back to the Gaza Strip along with hundreds of other Israeli civilians.
