Global Tributes Honor Shiri Bibas and Sons After Their Tragic Deaths in Gaza

The Bibas family, whose deaths symbolized national and global mourning, were remembered with worldwide gestures of solidarity and grief.

Shiri Bibas and her two young sons, Ariel and Kfir, were killed while held hostage by Hamas after their abduction during the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel.
The family's deaths have drawn international attention, with landmarks like the Empire State Building, Brandenburg Gate, and Eiffel Tower lit in orange to honor them.
Thousands of Israelis and global communities gathered to mourn the Bibas family, with emotional tributes, demonstrations, and symbolic acts of unity.
Yarden Bibas, who was freed in a February 2025 hostage exchange, delivered a heartfelt eulogy for his wife and children, calling for resilience against darkness and despair.
The tragedy has reignited calls for the release of remaining hostages and highlighted the devastating human toll of the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.
