Israeli hostage confirmed dead
Dror Or, one of the Israeli citizens kidnapped on Oct. 7, is dead, Kibbutz Be’eri said Thursday.
Or, 49, a father of three, was killed during the Hamas attack that day and his body was taken into Gaza, according to the group.
Or's death was determined by several groups including the Israeli Ministry of Health, intelligence agencies, the Israel Police, the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the chief rabbi of Israel, according to Kibbutz Be’eri.
Or was kidnapped along with two of his children, Noam, 17, and Alma, 13, on Oct. 7. The teens were returned to Israel during an earlier deal, according to Kibbutz Be’eri.
There are currently 129 Israeli hostages still in captivity. Thirty-five hostages have been killed.
