Behind the people kidnapped and murdered by Hamas during the massacre it committed on Oct. 7 in Israel are moving stories. One of them is that of Tal Chaimi, one of the hostages who the terrorist group murdered that day in the Nir Yitzhak kibbutz. His wife, Ella Chaimi, has given birth to their fourth child.
According to The Jewish News Syndicate, the Rabin Medical Center's Beilinson Hospital reported that there were no complications in birth and that the child was born in good health. His wife wanted to remember the figure of her husband on this day:
This birth is filled with mixed emotions as I welcome into the world our child, who brings with him lots of joy. I also remember Tal, who was a wonderful husband and father. I wish he was here with us right now.
