Idan Ofer is the founder of Eastern Pacific Shipping reportedly worth over $14billion, according to Forbes. His wife Batia is an art collector and the descendant of Holocaust survivors.
Batia Ofer told the Hebrew-language outlet TheMarker that she and her husband are both quitting the school's executive board over President Claudine Gay's response to 31 Harvard organizations signing a letter placed the blame on Israel for Hamas' brutal attacks that have killed over 1,500.
Their actions are 'in protest of the shocking and insensitive response by the president of the university, who did not condemn the letter by student organizations who blamed Israel for the massacres.'
'We write to you today heartbroken by the death and destruction unleashed by the attack by Hamas that targeted citizens in Israel this weekend, and by the war in Israel and Gaza now underway,' Harvard administrators wrote in the statement from Monday, credited to Gay.
