Following a persistent campaign by victims' families, several "death shelters" located along Highway 232 near the Gaza border will be designated as national heritage sites. These shelters became infamous during the October 7th Hamas attacks, where many civilians were killed while taking refuge inside them during the Nova music festival massacre and other assaults.
The decision to grant these sites heritage status comes after extensive advocacy by the families of those who perished in the shelters. They argued that these locations should be preserved as a memorial to the victims and a stark reminder of the atrocities committed on that day.
The designation aims to honor the memory of the victims and serve as a national symbol of the events of October 7th. Further details regarding the specific shelters to be designated and the process for their preservation are expected soon.
