After the police announced that Assad Yosef and Al-Rafa'i Tzabhi had arrived with the late Oren Ben Yiftach, the family asked: "Respect our privacy."


After the details of the investigation were revealed:

"Oren is the victim of a murderous terrorist attack."

This is how the family of the late Oren Ben Yiftach, who was murdered in Elad and after it was revealed that he was the one who drove the two terrorists, without knowing their intention, responded this evening (Saturday).

It was also reported that "the family wants to respect her privacy in the next seven months."

The police allowed the publication last night that the investigation of the attack shows that upon arriving at the scene, Ben Yiftach was attacked by the terrorists Assad Yussef Assad Al-Rafa'i (19) and Tzabahi Imad Tzabhi Abu Shakir (20) and there he died.

Ben Yiftach, 36, is survived by his widow Nofar and six small children - the eldest is 11 and a half years old and the youngest is a year and a half old.

He also left a mother and nine brothers and sisters.

Nearly 1,000 people accompanied him on his final journey.

The funeral was attended by, among others, Rabbi Eitan Shenrav, who lost his daughter Rene in the attack, as well as Yonatan Pollard.

Mayor Yair Revivo and rabbis from all over the country were also present in the cemetery.

Nofar ben Yiftach, Oren's widow, praised him: "My beloved, you were the perfect husband, a pure soul now lying in front of me. For me you are alive. Just yesterday we sent each other the song of the lovers' oath. You have given your soul for the sanctification of Gd, "she cried with a strangled throat.

"12 years together and we kept saying how much we love. I really do not know how I will continue. I will continue with your belief that Christ is at the door. That the Creator of the world will strengthen me."
