I read about it in the NYT but they did not mention the family meeting with Biden.

Sadly there is final confirmation. Heart broken tears.

Fucking war, terror, and hatred from every angle. This world, our species saddens me.

So sad... big abrazos to her family. Sure she was already embracing us all these days

I also saw today that both Judihl and her husband Gaddi are dead on NBC news and that their bodies are being held by Hamas.
I am very saddened by this news. One of the last things Judih did was give me encouragement for my upcoming book: BOATING ON THE RIVER STYX.
I already wrote about her abduction and did not know that she and her husband died from their wounds. A dedication in my book will be to all those
suffering through rough times both physically and mentally--especially to those who died in conflicts. God bless her family in their grief. I hope their
bodies will be returned.

The last thing she said to me about a cancer diagnosis was....you kick that mother fucker to the curb.

[sasha]

Goddamn it.

God-Fucking-Damn-It.

[Doreen Peri]

I am heartbroken

I’d just like to know how the kibbutz found this information out. I guess I’m having a difficult time accepting the news.

My sincerest condolences to her children and grandchildren.

From yahoo news

In a statement released by the White House, President Biden said:

"Jill and I are devastated to learn that American Judy Weinstein is also believed to have been killed by Hamas on October 7. This tragic development cuts deep, coming on the heels of last week's news that Judy's beloved husband, Gad Haggai, is believed to have been killed by Hamas. We are holding Judy and Gad's four children, seven grandchildren, and other loved ones close to our hearts. I will never forget what their daughter, and the family members of other Americans held hostage in Gaza, have shared with me. They have been living through hell for weeks. No family should have to endure such an ordeal. And I reaffirm the pledge we have made to all the families of those still held hostage: we will not stop working to bring them home."
