Hostage Avraham Munder has been murdered in Hamas captivity, Kibbutz Nir Oz announces.
In a statement, the Gaza border community says Munder, 79, had “suffered bodily and mental torture for months” before being killed.
Munder, who had worked at a paint factory, is remembered as “a very warm person who loved singing.”
His son Roy was murdered on October 7, and he was kidnapped along with his wife Ruti, his daughter Keren and his only grandson Ohad, all three of whom were released in a hostage deal in November.
