Ella Peri, widow of Gedeon Peri (may God avenge his blood) who was murdered in the attack in Kedumim about two years ago, published a personal post about coping with bereavement within daily life. In the post, she describes the gap between her external appearance, which seems smiling and functional, and the internal pain that has not disappeared. She writes: "It hasn't 'passed for me' and I haven't 'overcome it', I haven't 'moved on' – what a hated expression." Peri tells about an ordinary Sunday when sadness overwhelms her for no particular reason, and emphasizes that this is not a plea for pity but a sharing of a real moment. Gedeon Peri, 38, from Kedumim, was murdered on August 18, 2024, at his workplace by a terrorist from Qalqilya who was employed at the factory with a work permit.
