Hundreds of students from northern Israel helped create a Torah scroll, paid tribute to a fallen soldier and made the country a little greener.

Thanks to 360 students and 200,000 bottles, a sefer Torah was dedicated at Moshav Elyakim on Monday in memory of IDF Staff Sgt. Omer Tabib, the only Israeli soldier who died in last year’s 11-day Gaza war.

Tabib was killed on May 12 last year when Palestinians fired a guided anti-tank missile at his military jeep. Two other soldiers in the jeep and a civilian who ran to their aid were injured.
