On October 8, 2023, just one day after the massacre in Israel, an Egyptian police officer opened fire on a group of Israeli tourists in Alexandria, brutally murdering three of them - Alon, Hagai, and Amnon - in front of their wives. No one stopped him. No one even called an ambulance. The people around them just stood and watched as they bled to death. For three years, she lived with unbearable grief. Her life came to a standstill that day, when she begged the terrorist to shoot her too. During his interrogation, he claimed he didn't shoot women. But the truth is, he murdered her too. She was surrounded by monsters who locked her in a room at an Egyptian hospital for 12 hours while they performed an autopsy on her husband's body without her consent. They refused to let her contact her family or seek help. Three years have passed since that terrible day when she returned to Israel with his body, feeling that life had lost all meaning. In June 2025, she wrote: "They murdered your body, and they murdered my heart and soul. I was left here, alive but dead inside, and it's unbearable. I have one dream - to shut out this cruel world. And before that, one more: to remember all the good, only the good, to smile one last time, to fall asleep and never wake up." Today, at just 35 years old, she took her own life. 🥀
