Shahar Melamed remembered
As the Israel-Hamas truce reaches its 12th hour of quiet, details emerge about Shahar Melamed, the second fatality in a rocket barrage on Kibbutz Nirim Tuesday.
Melamed, a 43-year-old a father of three, was the kibbutz mechanic.
“He was a model family man,” a relative is quoting in Haaretz saying of him.
Despite the quiet, Keshet news reports that municipal leaders in the south are urging residents who left the area to stay away for the time being.
