A memorial for Ben Mizrachi who was killed by Hamas militants in Israel is pictured at his former school King David High School in Vancouver, British Columbia on Tuesday, October 10, 2023.
This memorial for Ben Mizrachi, who was killed by Hamas militants at a music festival in Israel on Oct. 8, was set up at his former school, King David High School, in Vancouver. Mizrachi is one of six Canadians known to be killed or missing following the Palestinian militant group's attack on Israeli territory.
Hamas and another Palestinian militant group, Islamic Jihad, claim to be holding 130 people hostage inside the enclave. Local Liberal MP Taleeb Noormohamed broke the news of Mizrachi's death in a social media post on behalf of the family, which lives in Noormohamed's riding, describing the 22-year-old as a "wonderful young man."
Alexandre Look's mother, Raquel Ohnona Look, was on a video call with her son as Hamas attacked festival attendees on Saturday. She later learned her son, pictured, died trying to protect others from Hamas's gunfire. The family would later learn Look was trying to protect others from bullets inside a bunker, where he and other concertgoers had taken shelter during rocket fire prior to the attack, when militants shot him to death.
"It's a tiny piece of information," Zlotnik told CBC News, explaining her body wasn't among the more than 260 people gunned down at the festival.Lapidot's family is originally from Saskatchewan, Zlotnik said, but has lived in Israel for the past 20 years. Her father, Ohad Lapidot, a Canadian citizen, released a video plea for her safe return.Vivian Silver
