An American hero was murdered on Oct. 7. Israel just hunted down his killer

As we approach the third anniversary of Oct. 7, 2023, an Israeli military announcement has brought a measure of justice to an American family whose son was killed that morning.

For Orna and Ronen Neutra, news that Israel killed a Hamas commander involved in abducting their son, Omer, and members of his tank crew, is profoundly personal. Behind the announcement is the memory of their 21-year-old son, the life he chose, and the future they will always wish he had.
