5:15Now PlayingTal Haimi was head of the rapid response security team at a Kibbutz targeted by Hamas on 7 October. He died trying to defend it.
His widow, Ela Haimi, spoke to Sky's Mark Austin and revealed she was in the second month of her pregnancy on that day, with three children already.
She says her kids ask "every morning" whether their father has come home and explains how "hard" it is to hold "happiness for those who came back alive" and hold "sadness" for her case.
"I told the kids he may not be found but I will not give up - not now. It's too early for me to give up", she added.
