In Memoriam of:
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.
Private Naama Boni, z"l, of Afula, only enlisted seven months ago into the 77th Battalion of the 7th Armored Corps. She served at the Zikim base that was overrun by the terrorists. She was able to record a video message to her friends and loved ones moments before her death:
"I deeply care for all of you. I have a head injury, and a terrorist nearby might start shooting at me. I am currently with an injured soldier from the Golani Brigade, and there are no reinforcements available."

"She was and born and raised in Afula, graduated high school and enlisted seven months ago. Last night she was stationed at the entrance to Zikim base, adjacent to the the Gaza border. At around 7:30 a.m. she was still sending us messages about the terrorists shooting at her, after which she no longer responded."
