A 21-year-old Israeli-Canadian man, Netta Epstein, died trying to save his girlfriend from a live hand grenade.
Mr. Epstein’s death was confirmed by Global Affairs Canada on Oct. 15, the most recent of five Canadians that have been killed after Israel was attacked by the terrorist organization Hamas in the early hours of Oct. 7. The attacks started at approximately 6:30 a.m. local time and involved air strikes followed by terrorists shooting civilians on the ground in Israeli cities near the Gaza Strip.
