Lucy, a British-Israeli woman, had been in a coma since Friday after she was wounded in a suspected Palestinian gun attack in the West Bank, in which her two daughters Maia and Rina were killed. The family had moved to Israel from the UK nine years ago when her husband had taken up a role as a rabbi.

The funeral of Lucy’s daughters was held on Sunday, with thousands of mourners in attendance. The emotional ceremony was a reminder of the senseless loss of life that can result from conflict and violence. Lucy’s husband, Rabbi Leo Dee, spoke during the funeral, expressing his heartbreak and noting that he did not know how he would be able to explain the tragedy to Lucy if she were to wake up from her coma.
