In Memoriam of:
Mapal Adam
Age: 25
From: Tel Aviv
In Loving Memory of the Innocent Souls Taken Too Soon. United in peace, their light shines on in the hearts left behind. October 7, 2023, a day of sorrow, but their memories guide us toward a hopeful tomorrow.
Mapal Adam, 25, the younger sister of television presenter Maayan Adam, was at the Supernova music festival where Hamas terrorists brutally killed over 260 fleeing partygoers and abducted a number of others, possibly in the dozens.
Mapal and her boyfriend Roi hid under a truck and played dead for hours until Hamas terrorists shot Mapal at close range. Roi survived.
Before she was shot, the two sisters were texting, said Maayan Adam.
“Don’t tell Mom,” wrote Mapal.
“I’m scared, Maayan,” wrote Mapal.
Maayan described their back-and-forth texts in a fraught interview on Channel 12. She asked for Mapal’s location, couldn’t understand why security forces hadn’t arrived, why no one was coming to save them.
“There’s a massacre, there’s a massacre,” wrote Mapal. “Bullets are hitting me in the head.”
Mapal’s boyfriend, Roi, called Maayan to tell her he would protect her. He lay on top of Mapal, taking bullets in his back and surviving to tell their story. The two had just moved in together the previous week.
“He told me she was brave when she died,” said Maayan. “I’m not sure he’s telling me the truth, I’m sure she was so scared. But unlike so many other families, we know what her last words were.” Source: The Times of Israel
