you'll remember yoni asher. he's opened his home to talk to us about his wife and two young daughters. his wife said there were terrorists entering the house. the phone gets abruptly cut off and yoni the in a video online sees them being loaded into the back of a truck. when we visited yoni this week, he showed his daughters' playroom, their favorite toys. he showed us their little pink shoes. that was very important for him, for everyone to see the shoes, because they're girly girls, he said. he tried to show us and opened us to that heart wrenching void in his life right now. yoni is back with me now. so, yoni, when you first heard the news that hamas has released two hostages, how -- what was your feeling? >> hello, erin. first of all, i felt -- i felt that i really, really miss my wife and my two young baby girls. that's the first feeling i had. and i was happy for this family, who got their relatives back to them. >> the idf, this morning, said that the majority of hostages are still alive. and i know -- we

this is yoni asher, a 37-year-old father whose wife and two children have been taken hostage by hamassterday while my wife and daughters by five years old and three years old, went to visit my mother-in-law near gaza. and during the morning, i contacted my wife and she told me on the phone that there are terrorists inside the house. later on, i saw video come the same video that was in social media, which i identified my wife, my two daughters, and my mother-in-law on some kind of a cart and terrorists of hamas all around them. i want to ask of hamas, don't hurt them. don't hurt it'll children. don't hurt women. if you want me instead. amy: and this is a mother in gaza, sabreen aub daqqa, who survived after being trapped in rubble after an israel rocket hit her home. the attack killed three of her children. >> i was at home and suddenly i hear a sound and everything fell over our heads. my children were next to me. one of them was next to my legs and the others were next to me. my brother was a bit further. nothing happened to him. i was hiding between the sofa and the door, so there

you heard yoni asher there.ire life is gone and his home, his children's toys and pink monkey and there's no children. and how a person even can endure through such pain and fear and loss is incomprehensible. is there anything you're able to tell us, mark, now that there's been one hostage video, about your knowledge as to the safety of what you say are 199 hostages being held in gaza. >> so i think what we all can learn from this terrible, terrible, shocking story from that father, is we understand who we're up against. and when president biden and my prime minister talk about an isis-type terrorist group, it's not just words. this is the reality. they are brutal, inhumane killers who target the innocent. why on earth could anyone with any sense of humanity kidnap young infants, a 2-year-old and a 4-year-old? this is this has to outrage everybody. this isn't about israel and the palestinians. this is about humanity against people who are so barbaric in their behavior that they are, as president biden said, they

yoni asher is looking for his wife and young daughters after seeing them in this video, a scarf placedn his wife's head as they're taken away on a cart. he describes the last moment he spoke with his wife. >> she told me that the terrorists of hamas entered the house, and later on, the conversation was disconnected. >> reporter: ricardo luc found out her daughter had been abducted on social media. the video shows her daughter, shani, unconscious in the back of a pickup truck being paraded around by armed militants. >> it looks very bad. but i still have hope. i hope that they don't take bodies for negotiations. i hope that she's still alive somewhere. >> reporter: hamas is now threatening to execute civilian hostages and broadcast those executions if israel targets people in gaza without warning. israeli rescue operations could be dangerous. >> the hostage-takers could kill the hostage, there can be an accident in which the rescuers kill a hostage. so that typically, a very dangerous moment for a hostage is a rescue. >> reporter: the government of qatar has been in talks with hamas abo

what are you feeling as much as asher is concerned, and do you expect to pass that on the form of higheryear? jean-jacques: we are talking of -- inflation, that is what you mean? david: yes. what do you see? jean-jacques: yeah. we have been -- i think we have been fortunate that post-covid, there was this pent-up demand which meant that everybody really wanted to get back their life, if you will, make it simple. people have probably changed the way they allocate their own money, their share of wallet, in order to move towards much more, i would say experiences. compared to spending money on an asset. we have been surfing that way. if you look at our turnover and how it compares versus where we were in 2019, we are 25% above. by the 25% is largely because of the pricing, and in the pricing, you find inflation that is at the hotel level. so we have not been feeling the brunt of inflation because there is very strong demand from the young customer to go and spend money on what business is about. i think this will stabilize. i don't believe prices will continue to improve. i don't believe ei

yoni asher was at home near tel aviv when the attack started.e are alarms and they are also hearing explosive, and they went into the safe room. they heard the gunshots from outside. his wife and daughters, raz and aviv, were i70km away in another kibbutz, called nir oz, celebrating a jewish festival with family. and the conversation got disconnected and... ..later on, i tried to, i tried to reach her and her mother and couldn't get them. this is the home of yoni's mother—in—law, where his wife and children were staying. there's a real sense of, smell of death here, and there's a huge amount of blood still on the floor, children's shoes. it's smashed up. it looks like a big struggle went on here. a lot of broken glass. some were burned and some after the terrorists left, they ran away. you can... i won't describe it because it's too... too painful. yeah. how many people do you think died here? i think around 90 people. hamas launched simultaneous attacks on more than 20 israeli communities that day. this was a mass attack, well—planned, well—equ
