A 88-year-old woman who was shot by Hamas while evacuating from the kibbutz Be'eri on October 7 has died from her injuries two weeks later. Chana Kritzman, known for her love of books and for establishing a local library, was among the victims of the attack that targeted the kibbutz. The incident occurred during the early hours of October 7, as residents were attempting to leave the area. Kritzman was wounded in the attack and later succumbed to her injuries. Her death marks another loss in the ongoing conflict, highlighting the personal toll of the violence. The attack on Be'eri was one of several targeted strikes during the initial phase of the conflict, which began with a large-scale assault by Hamas on Israeli territory. Kritzman's legacy as a community advocate and her dedication to preserving knowledge through her library remain a testament to her impact.
