The Aftermath Links

Check The Yeshiva World News for the latest updates.

Vos iz Neas reports that "Israeli officials said Saturday night that it appeared that Rabbi Holtzberg and his wife Rivka were killed during the first hours of the takeover of Beit Chabad by terrorists". The Yeshiva world however reports that "it appears that Rebbitzin Rivka HY”D was killed the first night of the attack based on the state of her body when it was recovered on erev Shabbos, referring to rigor mortis. The body was covered with a tallis when rescuers arrived, which we presume was done by the rav, whose body was found on a different floor. Rav Gavriel Noach HY”D appears to have been murdered shortly before the event ended. ZAKA volunteers reported his body was still warm when they received it from local officials on erev Shabbos". We hope The VosIzNeais report is the correct one in regard to when Rabbi Gavriel was Murdered HY"D, but unfortunately it seems that the Yeshiva World report is more accurate.

Holy Rabbi Covered Wife's Body with a Tallit Before He was Killed. I wonder how they know it was The Rabbi that did that? Unless they know he was the last to be Killed R"L from the other Jews there!

The reason how they assumed the Rabbi covered his wife -- is because his body was still warm when ZAKA came in.

One of the sites had this info. I can't remember now which.

Sorry for that last comment, I didn't realize you updated above it.

In any event, maybe you should delete the older post's question; or there's a point to leave it, to show it's updates in real time, as is thought each new development.
