Israel's Transportation Minister Miri Regev Welcomes Fourth Grandchild

Minister of Transportation Miri Regev announced the birth of her fourth grandchild on Wednesday, sharing a personal and joyous moment with her social media followers. Her daughter, Yael, gave birth to a baby boy the previous night. Regev posted a touching photo from the delivery room, embracing her daughter and the newborn.

"With praise and gratitude to God Almighty, my hero Yael gave birth last night to a baby boy, blessed be His name forever," Regev wrote with evident emotion. She also expressed thanks to the medical team at Mayanei Hayeshua Medical Center, including a midwife named Miriam, stating, "I can't believe it, I'm a grandmother for the fourth time."

The new arrival follows a series of significant events for the Regev family. Just two months prior, another daughter, Michal Regev, became engaged to her partner Nativ Atar. The couple announced their engagement on social media, showcasing a sparkling engagement ring.

This double celebration comes after the family endured a severe trauma. Both Michal and Nativ are survivors of the Hamas terror attack at the Nova music festival on October 7. Michal and a friend escaped the massacre by driving under fire, while Nativ survived by walking for nearly eight hours. Their mutual friend, Lotan Avir, was murdered that day, and it was through him that Michal and Nativ had met.

In a previous interview, Regev spoke emotionally about her daughter Michal's engagement, saying, "The truth is, as you speak to me about it, I have tears in my eyes. Although they shot at their car, they survived, along with many others who are still paying a heavy price in life and also in body." The family is now finding renewed happiness with the expansion of their family.
