Yaron Lischinsky, 30, and Sarah Milgrim, 26, were Israeli embassy staffers shot dead outside a Washington Jewish museum after attending a networking event. Lischinsky had planned to propose to Milgrim in Jerusalem next week; he was a researcher at the embassy and dreamed of becoming a diplomat, while Milgrim worked in public diplomacy and was passionate about Israeli-Palestinian relations. Their tragic deaths occurred amidst heightened tensions due to the Israel-Hamas war, with Milgrim’s family unaware of the proposal until informed by the Israeli ambassador.
