A mother, Padma Joshi, and her daughter, Pushpa Joshi, from Nepal have flown to Israel to help save Bipin Joshi. Bipin is a young man taken by a group called Hamas while studying in Israel. This happened during a big attack on October 7, 2023. Bipin was learning about farming in a program called Learn and Earn, but now he is a hostage.
The Israeli Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal’s capital city, helped Padma and Pushpa get on a plane. The embassy paid for their trip so they could go fight for Bipin’s freedom. They left early on August 11, 2025, hoping to bring Bipin home.
Padma and Pushpa are also going to the United Nations (UN). The UN is a place where people from many countries work together to solve big problems. The family wants international support to make Hamas let Bipin go. They hope the UN will help tell the world about Bipin’s story.
Bipin Joshi was studying with 49 other Nepali students in Israel. During the attack, 10 of his friends died. Bipin tried to save others by throwing a grenade away, but Hamas took him. His family saw a video of him being taken, but they haven’t heard from him since. They are very scared and sad.
Pushpa, who is 18, says Bipin is her best friend. She misses playing and laughing with him. Padma, his mother, wants her son back home. They’ve talked to Nepal’s leaders, but now they’re going to Israel and the UN to ask for more help.
Why does this matter? Bipin Joshi didn’t do anything wrong. He was just learning. His family’s trip shows how much they love him. They want international support to free him from Hamas. The Israeli Embassy is helping because they care about hostages like Bipin.
Kids, think about someone you love being far away and stuck. You’d want to help, right? That’s what Padma and Pushpa are doing. Human rights mean keeping everyone safe. The UN can help make that true.
In Israel, the family will meet important people to talk about Bipin. They hope their voices will bring him home. Let’s hope Padma and Pushpa succeed. A kind world helps people like Bipin Joshi. Share his story to help his family!
