Viral TikTok calls on BLM to support release of Avera Mengistu from Gaza

“You have black people in Palestine. You know who you have? You have my brother, Avera Mengistu, a black Israeli boy who crossed the border into Gaza six years ago not knowing what he was doing because he was mentally ill, and he has been held captive by Hamas for six years, ”Enav Baruch Mekonen said in a Tik Tok video.

Mekonen called on those who support the “Black Lives Matter” movement to act and urged Hamas to release Ethiopian-Israeli Mengistu, who had been held captive since entering the coastal enclave in September 2014.

“He is not an IDF soldier, he is not a terrorist, he is mentally ill and he is being held by Hamas in Gaza,” she continued.

“Palestinians, can you speak? Can I hear you? Am I lying?” she asks. “Why don’t you let him go? A mentally ill black boy?”
About 2,192 days have passed since his capture, about eight months longer than the 1,941 days Gilad Shalit spent as a prisoner.

“What are you going through at night?” asks a song by Eden Alene, Israel’s representative at Eurovision 2021, with Shlomi Shabat, to mark six years since Mengistu was captured by Hamas after entering the Gaza Strip.

“We hope and pray that he will come back to us because he belongs to us,” Shabat said in a clip to the song.
