Missing Israeli Teens

Place of birth: None

Religious affiliation: Jewish

The bodies of three Israeli teenagers who were kidnapped this month have been found in the West Bank.

Eyal Yifrach, 19; Gilad Shaar, 16; and Naftali Frenkel, also 16, were snatched while hitchhiking home from the Jewish seminaries where they were studying near the West Bank city of Hebron.

Their young bodies were found under a pile of rocks near the village of Halhul, just north of Hebron.

Three families will never have their children to hold again.

Eyal, the oldest victim with a big personality, was the type of person everybody wanted as a brother.

Gilad was gifted and loved to learn. Always smiling, he was the only son and the eldest of six children.

Naftali was a musician and basketball fan and was also a US citizen.
