WATCH: Netanyahu bonds with 11-year-old orphaned survivor of Mumbai terror attack

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu developed a close bond with 11-year-old Moshe Holtzberg, whose parents were killed in an Islamic terror attack at the Chabad House in Mumbai, India, in November 2018, when he was just two. He was rescued by his nanny, Sandra Samuel, and now lives in Israel with his grandparents. Samuel was also granted Israeli citizenship.

Netanyahu is on a historic trip to India, and as he had promised Moshe, he brought him along. At the Nariman (Chabad) House, where the murder took place, they unveiled plans for a state-of-the-art Living Memorial to commemorate the close-to-170 victims of terror throughout a series of attacks.

In this video, speaking Hebrew, Moshe presented Netanyahu with a memorial photo and invited him to attend his Bar Mitzvah.
