Summary of facts
Kibbutz Be’eri is a community in southern Israel, less than 5 km from the Gaza Strip. Of its nearly 1,200 residents, around 90 were reportedly killed. Around thirty people, most of whom are reportedly being held hostage in the Palestinian territory, are missing.
Two French nationals reportedly had three family members killed on October 7 by Hamas in Kibbutz Be’eri, and five other family members, including two children aged 3 and 8, are reportedly being held hostage in Gaza.
Amnesty International France recalls that everyone is presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law.
