Hananel Gez, the husband of Tze’ela, who was murdered in a shooting attack on Wednesday while on the way to give birth to their fourth child, published a eulogy for his wife.

"Hello friends, today is a sad day. Last night, my wife was murdered. We were on our way to the hospital to joyfully have our fourth child," Hananel wrote.

Despite the tremendous pain, he expressed thanks that he survived the attack, writing: "Of course I'm broken, it's natural, but I also thank G-d that I stayed alive and I will stay strong to continue being a light to the world. We will never let them break us."

He continued: "I am very, very sad, but I continue fighting for the good of our people. I love you all. We will survive, we will succeed, and we will prosper. G-d is one."

Tze'ela, in the ninth month of her pregnancy, was on her way with her husband to the hospital.

On the road between Pduel and Bruchin, terrorists opened fire at several vehicles. Two cars managed to escape, but the couple's car was hit.

This morning, Beilinson Hospital announced that despite hours of fighting for her life, the doctors had to pronounce Tze'ela dead.

The newborn infant's condition is classified as severe and stable. Hananel was lightly wounded and has been discharged from the hospital.
