This means that these barbaric, sadistic animals simply chopped off her head as they attacked, tortured and killed Israelis. It is a great tragedy and I extend my deepest condolences to her family.

This Monday, Louk's family announced the death of the young woman. She was a hostage of the Hamas group since the terrorist raid against Israel on October 7 and was one of the most recognizable faces of the tragedy after being kidnapped at the rave party by the terrorists and paraded around in a van as a symbol of the criminals' brazenness.
"Unfortunately, yesterday we received the news that my daughter is no longer alive," Ricarda Louk, Shani's mother, told the DPA news agency and RTL /ntv, as reported by several German media outlets.
