During a speech by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich at Kibbutz Ein HaShlosha, a resident whose mother was murdered on October 7 confronted hecklers in the audience. Liora Ben Tzur said, as quoted by journalist Itai Gal-On (N12): 'I acknowledge your pain. We are here to speak in the name of the people of Israel. 30 hours before the events of Oct 7, I gave birth to my daughter here. I found my mother, my brothers, riddled with Kalashnikov bullets on the path here.' The intervention came as Smotrich's event was reportedly disrupted by demonstrators. Ein HaShlosha is a kibbutz near the Gaza border that suffered heavy casualties in the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack.
