On Wednesday evening, Kibbutz Nir Oz announced that the body of Maya Goren had been recovered from Gaza by the IDF.
The Kibbutz’s statement read: “Tonight, we were informed that the body of the late Maya Goren was recovered in a military rescue operation. After over nine months, she was brought back home for burial. The family was updated in the last few hours about the operation,” the kibbutz said in a statement.
“The Nir Oz community will continue the fight for the return of all of the hostages, the living for rehabilitation and the murdered for burial,”
The Tzav 9 protest movement said, “Nir Oz’s beloved kindergarten teacher, who was kidnapped and murdered by the despicable Hamas terrorists on October 7, was returned by IDF soldiers for burial in Israel. We strengthen the Goren family, and her dear niece Noga, who fought with us with tears and courage against the aid trucks for the murderous terrorist organization Hamas.”
“Noga, who was dragged several times on the road, emphasized repeatedly that the equipment trucks must be used as a bargaining chip and a lever of pressure through which we will quickly return the hostages home,” it added.
