Kibbutz Be’eri resident Ilan Weiss, missing since Oct. 7, is confirmed killed
Kibbutz Be’eri announces that Ilan Weiss, who has been considered missing since the Hamas-led massacres on October 7, was killed in the assault on his community.
Weiss, 56, left his home on the morning of October 7 to join the kibbutz emergency response team. His family didn’t hear from him after 7:15 a.m. that day.
His wife Shiri, 53, and daughter Noga, 18, were seized and taken hostage in Gaza. The two were released on November 25 as part of a temporary ceasefire deal brokered by Qatar and the United States between Hamas and Israel.
