Pet Dog Kidnapped by Hamas will be saved on October 7 in Gaza: Emotional moment Billy de Cavalier King Charles is reunited with the Israeli owner by the soldier who saved her

A dog kidnapped during Hamas‘7 October 2023 attacks Israel was saved by one Israeli Soldier almost 18 months after it was dragged back Gaza.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Billy was abducted from Kibbutz Nir Oz in southern Israel by Hamas Gunmen while they stalked through the settlement and slaughtered Israeli citizens.

Billy belongs to Rachel Dancyg, the ex-wife of Alex Dancyg, who was one of the different Israeli hostages to die in captivity after he had kidnapped Hamas.

Rachel assumed that her dog was also killed in the midst of the brutal attack on Nir Oz.

But the three-and-a-half-year-old Hound appeared in a miraculous way last week almost a year and a half after the kidnapping.

Aviad Shapira, an Israeli reservist operating in southern Gaza, claimed that the dog was bordered by him because his unit of buildings near the city of Rafah cleaned up.

Shapira took the dog for four days with his unit before he was able to return to Israel, at what point he brought Billy to a vet.

The vet discovered that the dog had received a microchip implant and further research showed that his owners were the Dancyg family.

That shock detection was the stage this week for a surprise reunion when images of the dog on social media emerged.

Billy’s return to the Dancyg family was announced as a ‘miracle from heaven’ by Rachel’s son -in -law Yaron Maor, who told Israeli media about the reunion.

‘We are completely shock and overwhelmed by emotion to see her tomorrow. We didn’t believe she had survived.

‘We have the children another dog of the same race. Now the two dogs will live with us.

“It’s a miracle from heaven,” he concluded.

Although Billy’s returned the hearts of the Dancyg family, 58 hostages still remain trapped in Gaza, who has not received humanitarian aid since 2 March, even in the light of continuous Israeli attacks.

Israel confirmed this morning that it would continue to prevent humanitarian aid for an indefinite period of time, despite warnings from various aid organizations and activist groups that the conditions for the Palestinians who live there were terrible.

The armed forces of Israel resume the air and land attacks over the Gaza Strip from March 18, ending a two-month ceasefire with Hamas, which had largely stopped the hostilities on the territory.

Defense Minister Israel Katz said today: ‘Israel’s policy is clear: no humanitarian aid will enter Gaza and blocking this help is one of the most important pressure levers that prevents Hamas from using it as an aid to the population.

“Nobody is currently planning to allow humanitarian aid to Gaza, and there are no preparations to make such help possible.”

Top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have repeatedly cited military pressure as the only way to secure the release of the remaining 58 hostages in Gaza.

But doctors without borders (AFS) of medical emergency agency said that Israeli military operations and the blockade of the help had transformed Gaza into a cemetery.

“Gaza has turned into a mass grave from Palestinians and those who come to their help,” said CSF coordinator Amande Bazerolle.

“With nowhere safe for Palestinians or those who try to help them, the humanitarian reaction seriously struggles under the weight of insecurity and critical shortages, so that people have little or no options to gain access to care,” she said.

The explanation came when Israel continued to bang Gaza at night until Wednesday.

A pre-dawn air raid in Gaza City killed 10 people, including women and children, said the Civil Defense Agency of the Strip.

The renewed attack has so far killed at least 1,630 people in Gaza, the Ministry of Health reported in the Hamas-Runned area.

The Gaza war broke out after Hamas’s attacks of 7 October 2023 that resulted in the death of 1,218 people, mainly citizens.

Since then, at least 51,000 people, the majority of them, have been killed in Gaza in the Israeli offensive, the Health Minister of the territory said.
