Yarden Bibas, who was held captive in Gaza for 484 days, posted a poignant message on social media marking three years since the October 7th Hamas attack. His wife, Shiri, and their two young sons, Ariel, 4, and Kfir, who was 9 months old at the time, were also abducted. Bibas was released on February 1, 2025, as part of a hostage deal. Tragically, official confirmation later emerged that Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir were brutally murdered in captivity by Hamas. Their bodies were returned to Israel and they were buried on February 26, 2025. In his recent post, Yarden Bibas wrote, "Shiri, Ariel and Kfir. Sorry! Sorry that you are up there and I am here." Meanwhile, a memorial avenue was inaugurated in their memory at Parc Monceau in Paris, France. The Paris city council stated that the commemoration aims to preserve their memory in public spaces and strengthen the fight against antisemitism, racism, and all forms of discrimination.
