Each year on November 26, the air is heavy with memories from 2008, when 10 Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorists launched coordinated attacks at five prominent locations in the city, killing 166 people and injuring over 300.

Baby Moshe — whose parents, Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg and Rikvah were killed at Chabad House in Colaba — was rescued by his cook and nanny. On Tuesday, survivors narrated their stories at this very location under the banner of '#neverforget26/11'. Among those present were Zakir Hussain, the Holtzberg family's cook, Sadashiv Kolake, Devika Rotawan and her father, and 'Captain' Tamil Selvan.
