In light of the devastating news of the killing of Shiri Bibas and her boys, Kfir and Ariel, and the eventual return of their bodies to Israel, tomorrow, I welcome you to a gathering of friends here at the Walzer Family Campus tomorrow at 11:00 AM. Coffee, bagels and support is all that we can offer right now. RSVP by today at 6:00 PM.
YOUR JFED is here to support the community as we mourn their loss.
The return of the bodies of Shiri, Kfir and Ariel Bibas would mark a tragic end to 16 months of activism, protest, and prayer on behalf of the family. They more than anyone else became symbols of the Israeli hostages’ plight. Kfir and Ariel’s father, Shiri’s husband Yarden, was also taken hostage and held separately. He was released earlier this month.
Since then, their names and pictures, identifiable by the boys’ red hair, have been at the center of global efforts to secure the hostages’ release, have symbolized the atrocities of October 7th.
