Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas and her two sons Ariel and Kfir, whose bodies have been returned from Gaza, will be laid to rest on Wednesday, said their family, urging the public to line the procession route.
“This Wednesday we will accompany Shiri, Kfir and Ariel on their final journey,” Yarden Bibas, the bereaved husband and father, said in a joint message with Shiri’s sister, Dana Siton Silberman.
The family of four were seized by militants during Hamas’s October 7, 2023 attack on Israel that sparked more than 15 months of war in Gaza.
Ariel was aged four at the time and Kfir nine months.
The father, Yarden, was recently released from Gaza under a fragile truce. Shiri, Kfir and Ariel had died in captivity.
