Security forces are investigating the murder; we will find those responsible and bring them to justice,' said Netanyahu on social media. President Reuven Rivlin also mourned Ansbacher's death, saying 'the heart shatters when faced with such a loss of life at the peak of bloom, and the pain is too great to bear, Ori's generous doing to help others and her kindness will shine even after her great light was put out.' Ansbacher's body was found in Ein Yael in Jerusalem on Thursday. Her remains will be laid to rest on Friday in her home-town of Tekoa in Gush Etzion. Ansbacher was a volunteer in the Yeelim youth center in Emek Refaim as part of her national service. Her death is being investigated by police as a possible murder. Her parents, Rabbi Gai and Naama Ansbacher, described their daughter as 'a holy soul who sought deep meaning and had a sensitivity for each person and living thing. She had an endless desire to repair the world in goodness.' New Right leader Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked said that 'the heart is in pain when facing such unbearable cruelty, the evil doers who did this will be brought to justice.' הלב דואב לנוכח האכזריות הבלתי נתפסת. בני הבליעל יתנו את הדין, ויפה שעה אחת קודם. לבי עם המשפחה. אורי האירה אור גדול בחייה הקצרים והאבוקה שהדליקה לא תיכבה לעולם. יהי זכרה ברוך pic.twitter.com/f0JylpT6df — איילת שקד ayelet shaked (@Ayelet__Shaked) February 8, 2019 Shas leader Minister of the Interior Aryeh Deri expressed his deep sorrow on Friday saying that 'along the whole nation of Israel I feel deeply pained and shocked when faced with this criminal act.'
