Laor Abramov, 20, moved from New Jersey to Israel to serve in the military last year. His family announced his death Thursday after he disappeared earlier this week.
A former New Jersey resident was killed in Israel after reportedly attending a party attacked by Hamas terrorists earlier this week. Laor Abramov, 20, lived in New Jersey with his mother, a U.S. citizen, until 2022, when he moved to Israel to serve in the military, according to the New York Post. 'My heart aches on the death of our beloved Laor Abramov,' a translated Facebook post from Abramov's father, David Abramov, a famous Israeli DJ, said.
Abramov had dreams of becoming a famous DJ like his father, according to the Post. At the time he disappeared earlier this week, he had been at a party in Israel that was ambushed by gunfire from Hamas terrorists. 'He phoned his dad in the morning — my brother — in the morning around 7:30, saying, ‘People are shooting at us,'' Abramov’s aunt, Yael Abramov, told the New York Post Tuesday.
Abramov also told his family he was going to a 'missile shelter' and not to worry. He added that he would not 'be able to speak because it's very noisy,' Yael Abramov told the Post, quoting her nephew. 'After that, we didn’t know anything that was going on,' she said. photo shared with the Post shows Laor in a missile shelter packed with other people before he disappeared. His family then received word that he had been killed amid Hamas' attacks in Israel. Yael Abramov's mother-in-law told the Post the 'feeling of safeness is gone totally' in Israel, calling Hamas terrorists 'Isis on steroids.' 'And where is Biden?' she added. 'Why aren’t the Americans taking care of their own citizens? This is the child of an American.
The Israel Defense Forces previously told Fox News its infantry forces and tanks entered the Gaza Strip Friday to conduct localized raids. Fox News' Trey Yingst reported the maneuver was not the Israeli military's much-anticipated ground assault of the Gaza Strip. Fox News' Greg Norman contributed to this report.
