A HARRY Potter-loving autistic girl, 12, has been found dead alongside her grandma after she was feared kidnapped by Hamas – despite a desperate plea to save them by author JK Rowling.
Noya Dan, 12, and her 80-year-old nan from kibbutz Nir Oz, were thought to be among those held hostage in Gaza following the Hamas massacre on October 7.
But the Dan family confirmed the devastating news on a Facebook post saying that the bodies of Noya and Carmela had been identified.
Their deaths were also confirmed by the Israeli minister of foreign affairs.
Israel posted on X: “We are devastated to announce that Noya and her grandmother Carmela’s bodies were discovered yesterday.
“Thank you to all of you who shared her story to help us bring her home. Our hearts are broken.”
