'My Family Was Brutally Murdered in Hamas War': Jewish-Indian Actress Madhura Naik
13:50 10.10.2023 (Updated: 11:07 11.10.2023) Born in Indore, Maharashtra, India, model and actress Madhura Naik's maternal ancestors were Jewish immigrants to India. Her extended maternal family lived in Israel.
Indian actress Madhura Naik has shared the heartbreaking tragedy of losing her family members who were killed by Hamas militants on Saturday.
The 36-year-old actress took to social media to express her grief at the
tragic loss of her cousin Odaya and her husband, who were killed in front of their children.
Deeply saddened by the tragic loss of her family members, who were found dead on Sunday, Naik posted their picture and urged netizens to stand with the people of Israel in this time of need.
On Monday, Naik posted a video mourning the loss of her family and several other Israelis, saying: "The grief and the emotion that I and my family faced today can't be spoken in words. As of today, Israel is in pain. Its children, Its women, Its streets are burning in the flames in
the wrath of Hamas."
The actress took a strong stance on the incident, saying she does not support violence or oppression from either side.
"I have friends who are both Arab and Jewish, but in times like these, innocent lives are always at risk," she said.
"We Jews have as much right to live in peace and harmony as they do. But after seeing all the terror, the wrath of Hamas, the people dying, being kidnapped, the children being taken, and after mourning the death of my own blood, my family and friends, I stand with Israel, with the IDF (Israel Defence Force) and all the government authorities who must choose to act within their own rights to protect our civilians," Naik added.
She quoted a poem by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore which reflected his vision for peace and of a united country.
Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has declared that his country is in a
state of war after Hamas militants from Gaza launched a devastating barrage of rockets and infiltrated the Israeli territory with armed gunmen on Saturday.
In response, Israel had launched air strikes on Gaza. The
death toll has reached around 1600 on both sides, as per media reports.
