About a month after receiving the remains of Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir Bibas, father Yarden Bibas shared a devastating video tribute on Monday featuring intimate family photographs and memories.
"How do we even start to comprehend that?" Yarden wrote in the caption accompanying the emotional montage. The video, set to "The Night We Met," begins with images of the family together in happier times before transitioning to scenes of Yarden at the funeral. The poignant lyrics play over these images: "I had all and then most of you, some and now none of you. Take me back to the night we met."

The heartbreaking compilation continues with milestone moments from the family's life together – Yarden proposing to Shiri, their wedding celebration, the births of Ariel and Kfir, and simple everyday moments they shared as a family.
Yarden Bibas was released in early February as part of the hostage exchange agreement. Approximately three weeks after his release, Israeli authorities recovered and returned the bodies of his wife Shiri and their children Ariel and Kfir, who were murdered while in Hamas captivity. The family was abducted from Kibbutz Nir-Oz during the Oct. 7 attack. Yarden had left their home to protect his family when he was captured alone. Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir were taken separately sometime afterward.
