This morning, Israel has been struck with more devastating news. The IDF has confirmed the loss of four young soldiers in northern Gaza, killed in the line of duty while conducting operations against Hamas in Jabalya. Among these brave men was Captain Yehonatan (Joni) Keren, just 22 years old from the moshav of Moledet in Lower Galilee. Alongside him, Staff-Sergeants Nisim Meytal, 20, Aviv Gilboa, 21, and Naor Haimov, 22, made the ultimate sacrifice. May their memory be a blessing. This tragic loss reflects the heavy price that Israel has paid in its ongoing defense. Defense Ministry figures now show that more than 12,000 Israelis have been wounded during this war—many of them young reservists aged 18 to 30. They represent the spirit and courage of our nation, standing on the front lines with resilience and dedication. Today, as we grieve, we remain committed to supporting these wounded heroes and all those impacted by the conflict.
