On May 8, Koby and his friend Yosef Ishran skipped school to go hiking in the rocky countryside that surrounded the Mandell home in Tekoa, a settlement on the West Bank. The two boys were bludgeoned to death with rocks by the terrorists. Although no proof was found, a group called Hizbullah-Palestine claimed responsibility.
