Information is accurate to the best of our knowledge.
In case of discrepancy between the Hebrew and the English, the Hebrew should take precedence.
Uriel Baruch, 35, who was taken captive from the Supernova music festival on October 7. Baruch’s family had been informed by the military that he was killed in captivity, and his body is being held hostage in Gaza. He is survived by his wife Rachel, and their two sons. The family lives in the Giv’on settlement just outside Jerusalem. “Uriel Baruch, of blessed memory, was a joyful person who loved life. He worked in construction and loved techno music. Uriel was always surrounded by friends, most of whom called him by the affectionate nickname ‘Badalu,'” the Hostages and Missing Families Forum said in a statement. Baruch attended the Supernova rave with his friend, Michel Yoav, who was killed along with some 360 people at and near the party site by Hamas terrorists. He was last seen by his family in a video on social media showing Baruch’s car with his friend dead inside the car and Baruch on the ground, as they were trying to make their way home.
