Daughter of presumed Hamas hostages says people are 'confusing the real issue' amid fight to reunite

It has been 71 days since Hamas terrorists launched a surprise attack on Israel that resulted in the immediate deaths of approximately 1,200 people and the abductions of roughly 240 people, including several Americans.

Though more than 100 hostages have been freed from Hamas' custody in recent weeks, eight Americans remain unaccounted for and are presumed to have been taken captive by the terrorist group during the early October massacre.

Two Americans who disappeared on that devastating day and have not been heard from since include Judith Weinstein and Gad Haggai, a couple in their 70s who resided in southern Israel's Kibbutz Nir Oz near the Gaza border. The pair were on a morning walk when the chaos erupted Oct. 7.

The couple's daughter, Iris Weinstein Haggai, spoke to Fox News Digital about the pain she's suffered since her parents went missing. She has received no indication about the condition of her parents.
