“Devastated. Devastated and unable to breathe.”

This is the way Dr. Elana Heideman described the feeling in Israel on Thursday, as Hamas terrorists handed over the bodies of four innocent civilians, two of whom were little children. [Forensic reports late Thursday after this interview was recorded revealed the fourth body was not that of Shiri Bibas.]

Shiri Bibas was 32 when she was kidnapped by Gazan gunmen during the pogrom of October 7, 2023. Her son, Ariel, was 4 years-old, and baby Kfir was just 9 months old.

After a forensic examination on Thursday, it was announced that Oded Lifshitz – whose wife Yocheved was released after 17 terrible days in captivity – was murdered by Palestinian Islamic Jihad at the age of 83. It was also announced that Ariel and Kfir were brutally murdered in November 2023. Kfir was 10 months old. All four were forcibly taken from their homes in Kibbutz Nir Oz.

Heideman, a Holocaust educator, was mentored by Professor Elie Wiesel, Nobel laureate and Holocaust survivor. In an interview with Christian journalist Paul Calvert, she put into words the corporate grief of the nation of Israel. She also explained more about how the Bibas family were kidnapped, how the bodies were handed over, the lies surrounding their deaths, and how they can become a symbol for good in the world. More Here
