Mia, 21, who holds dual French and Israeli citizenship, was abducted while at the Nova Festival near the Gaza border which was stormed by jihadists who mounted a murder spree by hand glider.
Yesterday she was paraded in a deeply disturbing hostage video prompting Keren Schem to beg: “Please bring my baby back home.”
Mia’s terrified face came to symbolise the evil unleashed by the heavily-armed attackers as she was paraded in a sick Hamas video. Just moments earlier was smiling and dancing at the festival where 260 revellers were rounded up and shot dead.
Keren Schem said: “She only went to a party, to a festival party to have some fun…and now she’s in Gaza.”

Her family lost contact with Mia after an ominous final message to a fellow raver which read: “They’re shooting at us. Please, come save us.”
Karen said: “There are many children who went to this party, many babies, children, old people and Holocaust survivors that were kidnapped, their houses were burned.
“This is a crime against humanity and we should all gather and stop this terror and bring everybody back home.”
The mum spent hours calling Mia’s phone after she went missing from the festival near Sderot, which was stormed by gunmen on October 7.
Keren has had to live with the unimaginable torture of not knowing whether her daughter is dead or alive for a week since the cross-border incursion.

The Hamas video, published on the group’s official Telegram channel, shows Mia speaking Hebrew as she addresses the camera directly.
She says she is from central Israel and that her captors are taking care of her, before quietly adding: “I only ask that you get me out of here as soon as possible. Please.”
It is the first footage released by Hamas of a hostage apparently speaking from captivity in Gaza. Hamas is thought to be holding at least 150 hostages.
Keren found her daughter had been kidnapped, and not dead, on October 14.
She said: “I was so happy, it is so pathetic. I was happy to hear that my baby is being held captive by the worst enemy in the world. I mean, God knows what she’s going through.
“She has the mind of a 50-year-old woman, not a 20-year-old girl. She’s so mature and she’s a real warrior.”
