Gina Smiatich, 90-year-old Holocaust survivor, was killed by Hamas.

Her body was discovered in her home in Kibbutz Kissufim, near the border with Gaza. The woman was killed on October 7. According to the testimony of her grandson and based on the analysis of the shot trajectory, the terrorists dragged her from the shelter room, put her on her knees in her own living room, and then shot her in the back of the head.

This tragedy in Israel echoes the tragedies we have seen in Ukraine during the Russian invasion. For instance, on March 18, 2022, 96-year-old Boris Romanchenko, a survivor of the Nazi concentration camps, died as a result of a Russian attack on a residential building in Kharkiv. On April 4, 2022, 91-year-old Vanda Obiedkova, who survived the Holocaust and the German occupation during World War II, died in the basement of her house in Mariupol where she was hiding from the bombings.
