Mor and Yuval Tress, residents of Nahariya, were married on September 7, 2023. A month later, they attended the Nova festival near Re'im, where they were caught in a deadly ambush by terrorists on October 7th. Mor was killed, but Yuval demonstrated extraordinary resourcefulness.

Her harrowing testimony gained national and international attention, including a speech at the national memorial ceremony for families marking one year since the massacre.

Mor is also remembered on the National Insurance Institute's fallen soldiers page, the ORT network's memorial site, and the interactive project "Here 7.10.360."
