Dear Friends of OneFamily,

In the last week of December 2013, three terror attacks were ruthlessly carried out in Israel. A bomb exploded on a bus after the passengers safely evacuated the bus; a rocket was fired from Gaza and landed near Ashkelon; and a police officer was stabbed in the back at a checkpoint near Adam.

Over the past year, 1,074 firebombs have been thrown, 156 home-made bombs have detonated, 28 shootings incidents have occurred, 38 rockets and 16 mortar shells have been launched, 12 people have been stabbed, six people have been brutally murdered and 47 families have tragically become part of OneFamily.
In the past four months, five of our brothers have been violently murdered – stabbed, beaten to death and shot:

  • Tomer Hazan – Sept. 20, 2013.
  • Gal Kobi – Sept. 22, 2013.
  • Seraya Ofer – Oct. 11, 2013.
  • Eden Atias – Nov. 13, 2013.
  • Shlomi Cohen – Dec. 15, 2013.

Eden, only 19 year old, was stabbed five times in the neck, heinously murdered by a terrorist sitting behind him on the bus.

Terrorism alters lives forever – and with more than 1,325 acts of terrorism in Israel and against her citizens this year, we are in a constant struggle to rebuild and rehabilitate the lives of victims of terror.
