Kibbutz Yiron, home of Ben Dror's parents: 'We'll support family'

Kibbutz Yiron, where the parents of Itay Ben Dror live, announced following the murders that "the Ben Dror family opened its heart and home and adopted Itay when he was five and a half. Despite the difficulties, Itay found a warm, loving home. We respect and value such giving and will continue to encourage (the family) in the kibbutz."

"Yiron will continue to be a warm and loving home for children, youth, lone soldiers and others who found a family here over the years," the kibbutz said. "Micha and Drora are inseparable members of Yiron. We weep with them, embrace them and support them in every possible way as they cope with the difficulties facing them after this tragedy."
