The two Israeli Embassy staffers who were killed outside an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., were about to become engaged, according to Israeli Ambassador to the U.S., Yechiel Leiter.
“The couple that was gunned down tonight in the name of ‘Free Palestine’ is a young couple about to be engaged,” Leiter told reporters at a news conference on Wednesday evening. “The young man purchased a ring this week with the intention of proposing to his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem.”
Yaron Lischinsky, an Israeli, and Sarah Milgrim, an American, both worked at the embassy. According to the Associated Press, Lischinsky was a research assistant and Milgrim organized visits and missions to Israel.
