Bibas family invites supporters to Gaza hostages’ funeral procession
The family of Shiri Bibas and her two sons, Ariel and Kfir, who were held hostage and died in Gaza, have announced that their funeral will be held this Wednesday. The family is asking the public to line the route of the procession to pay their respects.
Shiri, Ariel (4 years old), and Kfir (9 months old) were kidnapped by militants during the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, which initiated the ongoing war in Gaza. Yarden Bibas, the husband and father, was released separately under a truce agreement, but his wife and children did not survive their captivity. Their remains were among the first to be returned as part of the recent truce deal, marking a tragic end for a family that had become a symbol of the Israeli hostage crisis.
