A 23-year-old German-Israeli woman who was kidnapped from the Nova music festival by Hamas militants on October 7 has been declared dead, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs has said.
“We are devastated to share that the body of 23 year old German-Israeli Shani (Louk) was found and identified,” the ministry posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday.
A source involved with her identification told CNN Louk’s death was announced after forensic examiners found a bone fragment from her skull.

She was a foreigner and arrived in Israel to attend the rave. She was also paraded through the streets of Gaza, one of the first viral videos that came out from the recent conflict.
It calls her Israeli-German in the article. Is she foreign or not?
Half-foreign. That’s enough to generate a higher interest in her compared to full ‘locals’
Well yeah, it means Germany can get involved if they want.
Listen, my country's fine, but we don't do anything until it's way to late. So don't count on ol' Germany.
She lived in Israel. She was an Israeli. Her grandparents live in Germany and she sometimes come to visit. But she was local.
