Kathmandu, Oct 15

A candlelight vigil was held on Wednesday evening at Maitighar Mandala in memory of Bipin Joshi, who was killed in Gaza.

The vigil was organized by Gen Z representatives.

On Monday, the Israeli military confirmed that Joshi was killed by Hamas. That same day, the Palestinian extremist group Hamas handed over Joshi’s body to Israel.

Hamas returned the bodies of four individuals – Joshi, Guy Ilouz, Yoshi Sharabi, and Daniel Perez – to Israel through the Red Cross, according to The Times of Israel.

Joshi’s status had remained unknown until the day the hostages were released.
