A family from Ukraine that traveled to Israel for the treatment of seven-year-old Anastasia Buryk, who was suffering from leukemia, tragically lost their lives due to an Iranian missile strike on a residential building.

This tragedy occurred on Saturday, June 14.

 An Iranian missile killed seven-year-old Anastasia Buryk, her mother, and two other children in Bat Yam. In total, four people died in this attack, with one person reported missing. Anastasia was undergoing treatment for her cancer and was awaiting a bone marrow transplant, as noted by Andriy Yermak.
