Mor Shamli, widow of Alon Shamli who was murdered in the shooting attack in Alexandria, Egypt on October 8, 2023, passed away on Saturday, October 31, 2026, at age 35. Her parents, Ilan and Shoshi Cohen, said that since the murder she was 'living dead' and that 'her soul was murdered there in Egypt'. Her uncle, Nahum Israeli, published farewell words in which he wrote: 'For three years you have not been. You are not calm, you are not present, you are not yourself. Now – rest for you.' In recent months Mor shared on social media about her pain, and last January she revealed that she had decided to end her life through an assisted suicide procedure in Switzerland. The attack occurred near Pompey's Pillar in Alexandria, when an Egyptian policeman opened fire on a group of Israeli tourists, murdering Alon Shamli, Hagai Efrat, and Amnon Bezalel, as well as an Egyptian tour guide. To this day, the terrorist has not been brought to trial. Mor wrote: 'The pain is unbearable, you wouldn't believe how many tears the heart and eyes can produce.' She apologized to her family and wrote: 'Sorry that I am hurting everyone, that the suffering passes to you.' The article presents her personal story using emotional language and touching quotes.
