The Embassy of Israel in the Philippines confirmed on Wednesday, January 24, that a Filipino soldier was killed in the massive explosion in Gaza amidst the ongoing war between Hamas and Israel.

In a statement, the embassy expressed its condolences on the passing of Sgt. First Class Cydrick Garin, one of the 21 members of the Israel Defense Forces, last Monday, January 22.

"Israel shares the profound grief of Sgt. Garin's family and the Filipino community. Our commitment is strong to support his loved ones during this challenging time. May his soul rest in peace," it said.

The Embassy of Israel in the Philippines said it is facilitating the safe travel of Garin's father to Israel.

"Sgt. Garin is the son of two Filipinos; his mother is a native of Isabela Province and resides in Tel Aviv, while his father is a native of General Santos City," it said.
