Hamas terrorists abducted Bipin Joshi, a Nepali student, on 7 October and later killed him in their captivity. Hamas terrorists also killed 10 Nepali students during the 7 October terror attacks: Their names are: Naryan Prasad. Ganesh Kumar. Ashish Chaudhary, Dipesh Raj Bist, Anand Sah, Rajesh Kumar, Rajan Phulara, Padam Thapa Pravesh Bhandari and Lokendra Singh.

His family was given to believe that he was alive in the captivity of Hamas as the captors made him speak to his family once and later send videos to assure them he was with them.

However, the Israelis says he was killed within a month of being abducted by Hamas.
