Gilad Shalit - 3 Years in Captivity June 25 marked 3 years since Gilad Shalit was abducted. On that day in 2006, members of the Iran-backed terrorist Hamas organisation crossed the border south of the Gaza Strip into Israel and attacked an army facility. It was during this attack that Gilad was wounded and kidnapped.   We in Australia, together with the People of Israel and Jewish communities worldwide, continue to campaign for Gilad’s safe and immediate release and raise awareness of his plight.   In Israel, a rally was held in Tel Aviv. See www.habanim.org for details. The Israel Project website has an ongoing clock measuring Gilad’s time in captivity to the day, hour, minute and second www.theisraelproject.org    Also visit www.gilad.org to stay informed about Gilad’s situation.
