The identities of the
victims of Thursday's terror rocket attack by Hamas on Kiryat Malachi have been released.
Israeli political consultant Jonny Daniels citing an Israeli source
and a Chabad leader in Israel told The Algemeiner that among the victims
of this morning’s Gaza rocket attack on the Israeli city of Kiryat
Malachi was a 25 year old Chabad “shlucha (female emissary)” to New
Dehli, India named Mirah (nee Cohen) Scharf, who was visiting Israel
this week for the memorial service of Chabad Mumbai terror victims Gabi
and Rivka Holtzberg. The Hebrew anniversary of their brutal murder is
today.
According to Chabad website Lubavitch.com, Scharf was pregnant. Sources on Facebook say she was the mother of 3 young children.
A second victim named Ahron Smadga said to be in his late forties was the father of the 8 month old baby girl who was injured.
“He was married for 20 years and couldn’t have children then he had
twin boys nine years ago, and 8 months ago his daughter was born and he
was walking around with a smile on his face that he had a daughter after
all this years,” Daniels told The Algemeiner.
“He was one of the first Chabad soldiers to join the Israeli Army,” he said.
The third victim was 22 year old Yitzchak Amselam. The funeral is planned for later today.
May the families be comforted among all mourners for Zion and Jerusalem, and may they know of no more sorrow.
