Jamal Abbas

Age: 23

From: Pe'kin

In Loving Memory of the Innocent Souls Taken Too Soon. United in peace, their light shines on in the hearts left behind. October 7, 2023, a day of sorrow, but their memories guide us toward a hopeful tomorrow.

Maj. Jamal Abbas, z"l, 23, served as a beloved company commander in the Paratroopers Brigade’s 101st Battalion, from Peki’in.

Almost all members of the Abbas family from Pki'in are senior officers in the IDF. The grandfather of the family, retired Colonel Gideon Abbas told about his grandson who was killed in Gaza: "I raised them to be fighters and officers. We all love the country. It is a part of us."

The IDF spokesperson released an audio recording from the communication channels during combat, featuring a conversation between Major Jamal Abbas, who fell in battles in Gaza, his father, Brigadier General (res.) Anan, and his brother, Major Gideon, both serving in the Northern Command.

"Commander, from dad," says Anan, and then Jamal says, 'Go on.'

Father Anan: 'Commander, from dad and Gideon, delivering you our love. You are the spearhead of the fighters. Take care of yourselves, strike at Hamas, eliminate them. Fight with courage, intelligence, and wisdom, and exact a price from the enemy. Stay as needed, until victory. We miss you greatly and love you. Return in peace. Supporting you from the Northern Command and the family. Take care of yourselves, return in peace, and see you soon."

Jamal: "Thank you very much." Anan: "Thank you, take care of yourself and stay in touch." Jamal: "No problem, dear father. Congratulations on the promotion." Brother Gideon: "Wishing you much success. Missing you, love you, waiting for your return, until victory, my brother." Jamal: "Thank you very much."
