Karina Engelbert

Karina Engelbert is an Argentine-Israeli woman who became a symbol of resilience after being kidnapped by Hamas along with her two daughters during the violent attacks in Israel on October 7, 2023. A resident of the kibbutz Nir Oz, she described her home as a paradise that turned into hell after over 100 residents were either killed or abducted. After surviving 52 days in captivity, she has since advocated for the return of hostages and highlighted the need for peace in the region.
