The father of Sergeant Adir Tahar, who was tragically killed on October 7 while defending the border communities during the Hamas invasion, revealed the horrifying details of the abuse inflicted on his son’s body by the Hamas terrorists.
“The terrorists abused the body, they beheaded it and took the head to Gaza. One of the terrorists tried to sell his head for $10,000. It’s just barbarism at insane levels. I received a headless corpse,” David Tahar told Channel 14.
He also shared the emotional toll of searching for answers, saying, “For nearly two-and-a-half months, I turned over the world, trying to understand where the head was. I demanded that the army allow me to see the body. At some point, you lose faith.”
Adir’s head was ultimately recovered from Gaza by IDF soldiers from an elite unit. The recovery was made possible through information obtained by the Shin Bet from an interrogated terrorist.
David recounted, “Three weeks ago, the Shin Bet, during interrogations of two terrorists arrested in Israel, succeeded in understanding that one of the terrorists had tried to sell the head for $10,000, and an instruction was handed down, to a very elite unit, together with the armored corps, and they entered central Gaza.”
Adir’s head was found at Falastin Square, inside the refrigerator of an ice cream store.
“In a purse, beside tennis balls, was my son’s head. They managed to bring me what was left, and we buried it together with the rabbinate.”

Horriifying. This family endured the worst imaginable. H”Y”D of Adir Tahar
Probably unpopular but still must be said: This is an extreme claim and hearsay, and should not be believed until it comes from an official source. This entire article probably violates journalistic ethics.
I wonder if c n n would post this information on their website
It’s truly horrific
Oh, these poor, poor Fakestinian “civilians”…
Why isn’t this out there on the CNNs of the world? For a father to go through this…. רח”ל.
Moderators Note: This is on CNN.

According to Rav Hershel Schachter, SHLIT’A Hamas and their supporters are Amalek even if their POWS are disarmed.
How dare we talk bad about Hamas, they are the resistance for peace….., what a joke, as Bibi said עולם הפוך
Horrifying beyond.
“In a purse, beside tennis balls, was my son’s head.”
why were tennis balls and a purse kept in a refrigerator?
“and we buried it together with the rabbinate.”
Please change to “we, together with the rabbinate, buried it.”
