Baruch Dayan Ha Emet..

Every Jewish nefesh lost, especially a child is a tragedy to great to be comprehended by myself. It tears me up inside to think of this horrible event. Seven more beautiful Jewish souls have been removed from the Earth.

Was the hot plate powered by electricity? If not, what was probably the power source?

Heartbreaking. I would hope the community has a meeting to encourage the use of smoke detectors and the placement of collapsible emergency ladders near all upper bedroom windows. Kidde KL-2S Two-Story Fire Escape Ladder with Anti-Slip Rungs, 13-Foot - Emergency Ladders - Amazon.com

I read on one of the Israeli websites (don't remember which one) that the mother did try to save her children and that is why one of her daughters/children is still alive.

Do some Orthodox Jews actually turn on an electric hot plate and leave it on from Friday evening until Saturday evening?

If so, that means it is on when people are sleeping Friday night.

If they have a Gas stove they use a hot plate. If they have an electric stove, they don't.
