Parents of Reserve Major Nirel Zini Plead for Help Finding His Missing Head

The parents of Reserve Major Nirel Zini, who was killed in the massacre at Kibbutz Kfar Aza, said they learned only after the funeral that Hamas attackers had beheaded their son and that his head had not been found. Since then, they say they have been left alone to try to locate it.

In a painful interview, the family appealed directly to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for assistance, saying they want the state to help them in the search. They said, "Nirel's head will not be abandoned."

Zini, identified in the article as deceased, was killed in the October 7 attack on Kfar Aza. The family’s plea centers on what they describe as an unresolved and deeply traumatic part of the burial and recovery process, with no indication in the article that the remains have since been found.
