- Almog was abducted from the Nova festival on October 7 and murdered in Hamas captivity nearly a year later alongside five other hostages.
- The parents remembered the frozen eggs two years ago following Almog's death and decided with their family to create a biological brother through surrogacy.
- The birth occurred on Yom Kippur after multiple failed fertilization attempts using outdated technology, with the circumcision ceremony held this week in Ra'anana.
Why it matters
The family called the birth a miracle, describing it as life continuing alongside grief and a blood bond between brothers who will never meet.www.israelhayom.com
