The Bibas family thanked Israelis for their ongoing support on Sunday, following their receiving the bodies of Kfir, Ariel, and Shiri last week.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDuring these painful and difficult days, there are no words to describe the level of gratitude that we feel towards all of you,\u201d the family said in a statement. \u201cThe warm embrace, the love and the strength that you have sent us from all over Israel and the world strength us and accompany us during these moments of crisis.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The bodies of four-year-old Ariel and nine-month-old Kfir were returned to Israel on Thursday, along with 83-year-old Oded Lifshitz. Another body, purportedly belonging to Shiri, was also returned, although forensic tests identified her as an unknown Gazan woman.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her body was transferred over the weekend, ahead of the release of six living Israeli hostages.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe sense the open hearts, the enormous embrace, your pain alongside our pain \u2013 which we don\u2019t take for granted,\u201d the statement said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The funerals will be held on Wednesday, with the family requesting it remain a small ceremony \u201conly be for members of the family and close friends.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

That being said, the Bibas family said it appreciated the support, and wished to make room for well-wishers by publishing the route of the funeral procession.\u00a0Eulogies will be broadcast, with details forthcoming.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe thank you all from the bottom of our hearts \u2013 for the love, for the embrace, for the tears that we have all shed,\u201d the statement said. \u201cWe don\u2019t have sufficient words to express our appreciation for all that you have given us at this time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPlease respect our choice to say our goodbyes during these final moments in the way that is right for us. The knowledge that you are with us, that your hearts are beating alongside ours, strengthens us with every breath.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
