A memorial plaza has been completed at Zikim Beach, three years after the "hell" and massacre perpetrated by the enemy on that morning. The plaza is dedicated to those killed and murdered on that "cursed morning." Itamar Revivo, head of the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council, described the project as "exciting and painful," stating, "It was important for us to bring the work to completion, out of a deep commitment to the memory of our loved ones who were murdered and fell, and out of a desire for the place to be worthy, respectful, and meaningful for the families and for the entire community."
Revivo noted that the path to completing the site was fraught with challenges and exacted an immense price, including the life of artist Lev Abramzon, who created the plaza's sculpture before his death. "We hope and pray that this plaza will serve as a place of remembrance and honor, and that the names and stories of our dear ones will continue to illuminate and accompany our community for generations," he added.
