"It’s All a Lie": Sister of Shoshana Strook z"l Breaks Silence Over Online Rumors

As the public storm surrounding the tragic passing of Shoshana Strook z"l, daughter of Minister Orit Strook, continues to roil the internet, her grieving family is speaking out against the wave of misinformation.

"From Start to Finish, It’s a Lie"

Orbach’s post targeted the specific biographical details being circulated, including a Wikipedia page created in Shoshana's name. She revealed that even the most basic facts being cited by thousands of strangers are incorrect.

"On the internet, thousands of people think they know my sister, when they even made up her birth date from start to finish," Orbach wrote in pain. "The day, the month, the year, all a lie. The date of death, however, is correct; I still don’t understand how that can be the only thing they got right."

Inventing Medical Diagnoses

The sister expressed deep frustration with activists and netizens who have "appropriated" Shoshana’s story, inventing medical histories and treatments that never occurred.

"They are inventing a whole life for her. Inventing diagnoses, inventing treatments," she stated. "I don’t even care anymore; we won’t be celebrating her 39th birthday anyway. Her birth date will now only be recorded on her headstone."

A Warning on "Matters of Life and Death"

Orbach concluded with a sharp warning to influencers and the general public who have used Shoshana’s tragedy as a pawn in social or political debates without verifying the facts.

"Maybe one day you will learn that you don’t know. Maybe one day you will be careful in matters of life and death," she warned. "Maybe one day you will gather information before passing judgment, instead of just believing [what you read]."

She ended the harrowing text with a reminder of the permanent nature of the family's loss: "It won't save my sister anymore."
