The Sun receives more than 5,000 thank yous for child hostages front page
The newspaper led Thursday’s print edition with images of the 32 kids snatched by terrorists from their homes on 7 October, alongside the words Bring Them Home.
Britain’s biggest-selling newspaper has received more than 5,000 emails of support in the wake of its front page dedicated to the child hostages held by Hamas.
The Sun led Thursday’s print edition with images of the 32 kids snatched by terrorists from their homes on 7 October, alongside the words Bring Them Home.
Jewish News – which ran a similar front page focusing on the young hostages last month – understands messages of support and thanks are still pouring in from the UK, America, Israel and other countries.
Although the paper’s appeal for volunteer vaccinators during the pandemic and for a knighthood for Dame Deborah James elicited massive responses, this is believed to be the largest email response to any story of its kind published by the paper in recent years.
The children are among more than 240 hostages held by Hamas in Gaza for more four weeks.
