According to Shani's first cousin, the victim had been reportedly missing after militants took control of an open-air festival on Saturday morning.
Confirming the identity of the woman, Shani's cousin Tomasina Weintraub-Louk expressed hope for positive news.
"It is definitely Shani. She was at a music festival for peace. This is a nightmare for our family," news.com.au reported, quoting the victim's cousin Tomasina.
The music festival, which Shani had attended, was reportedly one of the first sites to be attacked by Hamas militants. The situation remains deeply concerning and further updates are awaited.
The first attack came with a whopping 5,000 rockets fired by the Hamas militant group on Israel on Saturday morning, after which the terrorists infiltrated the country. The militants have also captured foreigners. Seven Nepalis have been reportedly injured in Israel and 17 were taken hostage by Hamas terrorists. |
