Two diplomats from the Israeli Embassy were tragically killed by a pro-Palestinian terrorist outside the Capital Jewish Museum. The victims, Yaron Lischinsky, 28, and Sarah Milgrim, 26, were in a committed relationship and were close to getting engaged.

The brutal attack took place as they were leaving the American Jewish Committee’s ACCESS Young Diplomats Reception at around 9 p.m. in Washington, DC. Lischinsky and Milgrim were targeted and fatally shot in the street.

Milgrim, who had actively participated in peace-building initiatives in Israel by working with groups that foster harmony between Palestinians and Israelis during her summers there, was on the brink of meeting Lischinsky’s family in Israel for the first time. It was during this visit that Lischinsky had planned to propose to her.

Her heartbroken father, Robert Milgrim, 73, told The Post their family is “complete wrecks” in the wake of the senseless act of violence allegedly perpetrated by an anti-Israel radical.

“We’re going to miss her terribly. She had an infectious smile. She was happier now than she ever was in her life. She was truly in love with Yaron and vice versa,” he said.

“We spent a lot of time with Yaron and we loved him dearly and wanted to welcome him into our family,” he added.

Her father said on the night of the shooting his daughter had been attending a panel to figure out how to direct more humanitarian aid into Gaza.

“She was trying to help the situation — that’s the irony. The anti-semitism is just rampant. It permeates the thought processes of some of these individuals.”

Lischinsky had planned to propose to Milgrim during a trip next week in Jerusalem, and he had just purchased a ring this week, Israel’s Ambassador to the US Yechiel Leiter revealed.

He moved to Israel from Germany as a teenager, and to the US in September 2022 to work in the political department of the Israeli Embassy in DC.

According to his LinkedIn, he had a master’s degree in Government, Diplomacy & Strategy from Reichman University, and a bachelor’s from Hebrew University in International Relations.

On his profile, he expressed his fervent hopes to forge a more peaceful future between Israelis and its Middle East neighbors.

“I’m an ardent believer in the vision that was outlined in the Abraham Accords and believe that expanding the circle of peace with our Arab neighbors and pursuing regional cooperation is in the best interest of the State of Israel and the Middle East as a whole. To this end, I advocate for interfaith dialogue and intercultural understanding,” he wrote.

Milgrim had a master’s in international studies from American University, and a second MA in natural resources and sustainable development from the United Nations University of Peace.

“My passion lies at the intersection of peacebuilding, religious engagement, and environmental work,” Milgram wrote on her LinkedIn page. “While working with Tech2Peace in Tel Aviv, Israel, I conducted comprehensive research on peacebuilding theory, emphasizing grassroots initiatives in the Israeli-Palestinian region.”

The couple both worked out of the Israeli Embassy in DC, and their friendship blossomed into romance which was cut tragically short.

The Israeli embassy shared a tribute to the couple on X soon after the slayings, “Yaron and Sarah were our friends and colleagues,” they wrote.

“This evening, a terrorist shot and killed them as they exited an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC. The entire embassy staff is heartbroken and devastated by their murder. No words can express the depth of our grief and horror at this devastating loss. Our hearts are with their families, and the embassy will be by their side during this terrible time.”
