Avraham Havron's family sensed the winds of antisemitism picking up in 1930s Germany. They packed up 7-year-old Avraham and moved to a dry and sparsely populated stretch of land between Lebanon and Egypt on the Mediterranean. As World War II broke out in Europe and Nazis hunted Jews down to murder or round up into concentration camps, Avraham's vision of a peaceful community where all members contribute started to crystalize.
' Havron, her father, missing aunt and cousins — one as young as 3 — all hold German citizenship through her grandfather Avraham. Other family members believed to be held hostage hold dual citizenship with Italy and Austria. Avraham Havron died last year at the age of 97. His two daughters, who were attacked and possibly kidnapped by Hamas, have lived their entire lives in the village he founded. One of them, Shoshan Haran, fights the global hunger crisis through her NGO Fair Planet.
