Hamas Hostage's Mom Fights for Kidnapped Son amid Unthinkable Terror: 'A Haunting Message'They learned Hersh's arm from the "elbow down had been blown off" and that he had a bandage of some sort on it. Cooper's video confirmed these details for the family. "That was the last that we heard of him," Goldberg said of the video, noting it brought some peace to her husband, as the family saw their son was "in control," looked "composed" and was strong.
Rachel Goldberg told CBN Digital her son, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, was captured Oct. 7, while attending the Nova music festival. Video showing her son being loaded onto a Hamas vehicle after losing one of his arms confirmed accounts the family had heard about the horrors Hersh endured during the attack.

The family hurried into a bomb shelter inside their apartment. Goldberg said she turned on her phone, which she doesn't normally do on the Sabbath; that's when she saw Hersh had, just minutes earlier, sent two messages through WhatsApp. The first read, "I love you" and the second added, "I'm sorry." "Immediately, I knew something horrible was unfolding," she said. "The second message was the haunting message, because I immediately knew he knew something was really going to hurt us, and he was apologizing for that." Goldberg tried to call her son but to no avail. From there, she and her husband began talking with survivors of the music festival and pieced together much of what had unfolded.
