Nov 22, 2000 - Shoshana Reis, 21, of Hadera, was killed when a powerful car bomb was detonated alongside a passing bus on Hadera's main street, while the area was packed with cars and pedestrians.

The car bomb was detonated just before 5:30 P.M. on Rehov Hanassi near the Lev Hadera shopping mall, killing two passengers of the bus - Shoshana Reis and Meir Bahrame. People in the sidewalk stores and residents living above the shops were among the 60 injured.

Hundreds of people attended Shoshana's funeral, including MKs Ayoub Kara, Yair Peretz, and Yuri Stern. A number of public dignitaries paid tribute to her, including Deputy Mayor of Hadera, Avraham Ballev and Avi Tzafon, the head of the Magen David Adom station where Shoshana volunteered on a regular basis.

Shoshana leaves behind her parents, Tzviah and Tuvia, and two sisters, Sabbina, 19, and Anat, 13. Shoshana Reis was buried in the city's cemetery.
