Hamas attack: What happened to twins who organized Israel rave party

Osher and Michael Vaknin, twin brothers known for organizing rave parties across Israel, faced a tragic turn of events when a brutal attack by Hamas fighters during one of their events near the Gaza Strip left Osher dead and Michael missing.
According to an AFP report, Osher was laid to rest in Jerusalem, but the fate of Michael remains unknown. The family, sitting shiva in their Jerusalem home, mourns Osher while clinging to hope for Michael's safe return.
"He's coming home.I hope he hasn't been kidnapped. It'll kill us. It's very, very painful," said Ausa Meir, the twins' sister, who added that Osher sacrificed himself to save others during the attack.
The rave organized by the twins turned horrifying when Hamas militants launched a surprise offensive, killing around 260 people at the site and taking others captive. Sunny Vaknin, Osher's widow, tearfully recounted finding their car covered in blood and bullet holes, hoping against hope for Michael's survival.
Amidst the grief, the family and survivors sought solace and comfort, clinging to the belief that Michael might still be alive, although his fate remains uncertain. The mourning family and friends remembered the twins' joyful spirit and their passion for bringing happiness to others through their events.
Meanwhile, Israel announced on Thursday that it would maintain its blockade of the Gaza Strip until all its hostages were released, rejecting calls for a humanitarian pause. The decision came after the Red Cross urged Israel to allow fuel supplies to prevent overwhelmed hospitals from becoming makeshift morgues.
In retaliation for the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust, where hundreds of gunmen breached the barrier fence and attacked Israeli towns, Israel has pledged to obliterate the Hamas movement that governs the Gaza Strip.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed the complete destruction of the Hamas that rules the Gaza Strip in retribution for the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust, when hundreds of gunmen poured across the barrier fence and rampaged through Israeli towns on Saturday
"Every Hamas member is a dead man," Netanyahu said, again likening them to the Islamic State group and promising: "We will crush them and destroy them as the world has destroyed Daesh."
The gunmen killed at least 1,200 people, mostly civilians gunned down in their homes or on the streets, and carried scores of hostages back to Gaza.
The scale of the killings has emerged in recent days after Israeli forces reclaimed control of towns, finding homes strewn with bodies, including women who were raped and killed and children who were shot and burned.
