A short while ago, the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Aviv Kohavi, arrived at the scene of the shooting attack which took place last night, during which an IDF soldier, the late Sergeant Noa Lazar, was killed near the Shuafat Crossing.
“You, the soldiers, together with additional IDF combat units and Israeli security forces, constitute our first line of defense. Thanks to your ongoing efforts, terrorist attacks are being prevented and counterterrorism activity is carried out on a daily basis.״ Said Kohavi.
“We are meeting under painful circumstances. However, this is still a chance to express gratitude to you, the commanders, and soldiers, for your continuous activity throughout the year. I would also like to take this opportunity to send my condolences to the Lazar family. I embrace them at these moments and wish them strength.”
