One year on, Cousin of murdered Israeli man reminiscing horrific October 7th
Udi Goren is the cousin of the late Tal Haimi, who was killed on October 7 defending Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak from Hamas terrorists.
His body remains captive in Gaza. Tal’s widow Ella gave birth to their fourth son four months ago while adjusting to their life as evacuees in Eilat.
Udi Goren said in his statement that: “The reason we are here, and I’m here speaking to you today, is because almost a year ago Hamas carried out crimes against humanity, butchering, slaughtering people, murdering my cousin, and taking his body hostage”.
He added, “the war cannot end until we have our hostages back. It’s very simple for us, but sometimes I feel the world overlooks it.”
