Luis Har (Buenos Aires, 73) squeezes in a break during his vacation at a hotel in Eilat, a tourist city on the shores of the Red Sea at Israel’s southernmost tip. It is the clearest evidence of the upheaval — from anonymous citizen to a public figure who travels constantly — his life has undergone since October 7, 2023, when Hamas took him hostage in its massive surprise attack, along with his partner, Clara Marman, and three of her relatives, at a kibbutz near Gaza, Nir Yitshak. All five held dual Argentine and Israeli nationality.
The foiled hijacking of a flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv carrying 174 passengers — 166 of them Israelis — on Wednesday has revived the specter of earlier hijackings (mostly attempted) of aircraft bound for Israel, especially during the 1960s and 1970s.

Two images clearly showed the growing international isolation and criticism facing Benjamin Netanyahu’s government. Inside the UN headquarters, the conservative Israeli prime minister was met Thursday with jeers and the departure of many delegations before he began his address. The half-empty General Assembly was a powerful metaphor. “If there are any other moral cowards who haven’t left this hall, please do so now,” he said defiantly, while members of his delegation shouted: “Am Israel Jai” (“The people of Israel live,” in Hebrew). Outside the building, police detained about 100 demonstrators, among them actress Susan Sarandon and Democratic congressional candidate Darializa Ávila Chevalier, who were protesting the presence of a head of state accused of committing genocide in Gaza.
