A Friday of death and burials ends sixth week of devastating Israel-Hamas war | World News<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

At the end of a sixth week of war, a day of burials and death but also signs the conflict is deepening.<\/p>\n

In the settlement of Modiin in Israel<\/strong>, the Marciano family were burying their daughter Noa.<\/p>\n

Her body was one of two found by Israeli forces near al Shifa hospital in Gaza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

She’d been a soldier in a military base overrun by Hamas <\/strong>on 7 October and was taken hostage.<\/p>\n

Her sister Yuval was choked with tears as she delivered a heart-breaking eulogy.<\/p>\n

She said: “I love you. I’m glad at least you’re here. I will bring my grandchildren; I will bring the family.<\/p>\n

“I won’t give up on you, everyone will know about Noa Marciano.”<\/p>\n

In the moshav of Olesh to the west, another grief-stricken Israeli family are preparing to bury their grandmother this weekend.<\/p>\n

Yehudit Weiss was also found dead by the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) near al Shifa. She had been taken hostage during Hamas’s initial attack, when her husband Shmulik was killed.<\/p>\n

Her son Omer recalled the family’s double heartbreak at being told first about his father’s death, then his mother’s.<\/p>\n

“It broke us the first time when they told us about my father and the next time it tore us apart, we didn’t know how to deal with it.<\/p>\n

“We are taking it day by day,” he told me.<\/p>\n

Like the relatives of some 240 hostages, they hoped for a breakthrough that would bring their grandmother home.<\/p>\n

But the waiting and the uncertainty, he said, have been unbearable.<\/p>\n

“It’s unbelievable pain. Every day passes, every hour, every minute, and we don’t have information,” he added.<\/p>\n

“We buried our father, and we weren’t able to mourn. We kept ourselves busy, and we did everything we could to bring my mother home.”<\/p>\n

In Gaza itself, another family are also preparing to bury relatives. Eleven of them.<\/p>\n

The Tabatibi family lost that many in multiple Israeli airstrikes in Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n

Alaa Abu Hasira said they were among the thousands of people who have travelled south from northern Gaza, after being told they would be safer there by the Israelis.<\/p>\n

“We were in Gaza City, and as a result of the conflict we moved to Khan Younis. All my sisters died, and my son and daughter also. I wish I had taken my daughter in my arms, and my twin sister also died,” she said.<\/p>\n

Others in Gaza were buried alive today.<\/p>\n

Israeli airstrikes in Nusseirat have left dozens under the rubble of residential blocks which collapsed in the bombardment.<\/p>\n

A Friday of death and burials, ending a sixth week of this devastating war.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
