British girl, 13, who was missing with sister after Hamas attack confirmed dead

UK

The younger of two British sisters who were said to be missing after the Hamas attack on Israel has died.

Yahel, 13, and Noiya, 16, disappeared from Be’eri kibbutz after it was raided.

The family has been informed of Yahel’s death today, Sky News understands.

Their mother, Lianne, was killed and their father, Eli, is still missing.

Rishi Sunak told MPs on Monday at least six Britons were killed and a further 10 are missing in the “pogrom” on 7 October and called for the immediate release of the around 200 hostages taken by Hamas.

Raz, 52, the father’s brother-in-law, is reported to have called on the British government to “take some action” or find out what happened to the family.

British-Israeli national Benjamin Trakeniski, 32, was also killed in Be’eri while trying to help residents flee Hamas gunmen, according to multiple reports.

So far, eight flights have brought back 500 British nationals from Israel.

Mr Sunak said the UK is working with Israel to establish the facts and support the families of the missing and the dead through their “unimaginable pain”.

“The elderly, men, women, children, babes in arms, murdered, mutilated, burned alive,” he said.

“We should call it by its name: it was a pogrom.”
