THE BRIDGE IS REMOVED. >>> HAMAS HAS RELEASED A NEW VIDEO APPEARING TO SHOW AN ISRAELI AMERICAN HOSTAGE TAKEN CAPTIVE DURING THE OCTOBER 7th ATTACK. THE VIDEO CANNOT BE INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED, BUT APPARENTLY SHOWS HIM, AND IT SPARKS PROTEST BY FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF HOSTAGES OUTSIDE PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU'S RESIDENCE. THEY ARE DEMANDING THE PRIME MINISTER DO MORE TO BRING THE HOSTAGES HOME. CBS NEWS FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT DEBORA PATTA SPOKE TO HIS MOTHER IN JERUSALEM. >> Reporter: RACHEL GOLDBERG IS AN OPPRESSIVE WOMAN. SHE MAY BE SMALL IN STATURE, BUT WHEN SHE FIXES YOU WITH HER STEELY MOTHER'S GAZE, YOU DARE NOT LOOK AWAY, AND NO WONDER SHE MADE THE TIME 100 LIST THIS YEAR FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS, OF COURSE. HER 23-YEAR-OLD SON WAS KIDNAPPED FROM THE NOVA MUSIC FESTIVAL ON OCTOBER 7th LAST YEAR, AND SHE HAS NOT HEARD FROM HIM SINCE THEN. HER LAST MESSAGE, THE LAST MESSAGE SHE RECEIVED FROM HIM AT THE FESTIVAL ON OCTOBER 7th LAST YEAR WAS, I LOVE YOU. I'M SORRY. THAT WAS, OF COURSE, UNTIL YESTERDAY WHEN THE HAMAS PROPAGANDA VIDEO SURFACED. WE CANNOT INDEPENDENTLY VERIFY THAT, AND CLEARLY, HER SON WAS SPEAKING UNDER DURESS. YOU COULD SEE HIS AMPUTATED HAND YET THAT IS AN INJURY THAT WAS SUSTAINED DURING THE ATTACK. HE WAS FENDING OFF AND TRYING TO PROTECT HIS FRIENDS WHEN THAT ENTRY WAS SUSTAINED. AS SOON AS THAT VIDEO HAD COME TO LIGHT, RACHEL AND HER HUSBAND JOHN, IMMEDIATELY RECORDED A MESSAGE WHERE SHE SAID VERY STRONGLY, LOOKING AT THE CAMERA, STAY STRONG. I LOVE YOU. SURVIVE. WE SPOKE TO HER EARLIER TODAY ABOUT SEEING HER SON ON THAT HAMAS VIDEO FOR THE FIRST TIME. LET'S LISTEN TO WHAT SHE HAD TO SAY. YOU HAVE MIXED EMOTIONS WHEN YOU SEE YOUR SON FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 200 DAYS YESTERDAY. >> IT'S HARD TO DESCRIBE. I WASN'T EVEN REALLY LISTENING TO WHAT HE WAS SAYING. I WAS JUST HEARING HIS VOICE. I HAVEN'T HEARD HIS VOICE IN SIX MONTHS. HE IS CLEARLY MEDICALLY COMPROMISED THE MEDICALLY FRAGILE. >> Reporter: LANA, I HAVE A DAUGHTER THE SAME AGE AS RACHEL'S SON. THEY MAY BE ADULTS AT 23, BUT THEY ARE STILL YOUR CHILDREN, AND HER IDENTITY IS AS A MOTHER, AND SHE IS GOING TO TURN
