Doctor Leah Goldin, the mother of Lieutenant Hadar Goldin, whose body is held by Hamas, has turned to the residents of Gaza through the Arabic Facebook page of the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, Major-General Yoav Mordechai, in light of the Israeli decision to restore electricity to Gaza. She said, "Gaza residents, mothers, fathers and children, the kidnapping of bodies is unacceptable, inhuman and inhumane. Every mother wants to visit her son's grave and the non-return of Hadar Goldin for burial is considered a crime in Islam."

Dr. Goldin continued, "Cynical and criminal use of bodies defies the human conscience. Do not be held hostage by the Hamas terrorist organization. Humanitarianism and humanity must be mutual."
