100 Hostages, 436 Days in Gaza |
‘The struggle is for us and the future of Israeli society and for the country,’ says Naama Weinberg, the cousin of Itay Svirsky, whose body was recovered in early December. “I don’t see what kind of country and society we will be here if the hostages don’t return’
Itay Svirsky was buried last week on Kibbutz Be’eri between the graves of his parents, Orit and Rafi, who were murdered during the October 7 attack. “The announcement of your death arrived almost a year ago. Still, there remained a grain of innocent hope that maybe everything they said did not happen,” Naama Weinberg, his cousin, said at the funeral.
