Nir Yitzhak mourns death of Oren Goldin
"Oren was the first to leave that dark morning, even before we knew how serious the danger was outside. In November, about a month and a half, which we were hoping for a sign of life, we were informed that Oren was killed on 7/10 and his body is being held hostage."
"For almost ten months, wished for the day when his body would be brought to Israel and we could bury him in the home he loved so much, Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak."
