A fire broke out on Tuesday at a carpentry shop and store owned by Yonat Or in Kibbutz Be'eri, a factory that had been rebuilt on the ruins of the family's home following the October 7th massacre. Yonat's husband, Dror Or, was murdered in the attack, and two of their children were abducted to the Gaza Strip. After the tragedy, the factory was restored and its surviving workers returned to operate it as part of the kibbutz's rehabilitation efforts.
Five firefighting teams from Netivot, along with a volunteer team from Kibbutz Be'eri's firefighting unit, were dispatched to the scene. Firefighters worked to control the flames and search for anyone trapped. Israel Fire and Rescue Services in the Southern District later announced that the fire was under control, with teams continuing to extinguish remaining hotspots to prevent further spread. No one was found trapped inside the structure after searches were completed. The circumstances of the fire's ignition will be investigated by a fire investigator from Israel Fire and Rescue Services.
