Abraham, the son of Bela-Necha and Yeshayahu, was born on April 21, 1928, in Poland. He was educated and educated in Podbice, Lodz. After the German occupation of the Second World War, Podbice was annexed to the German Reich. The 1,500 Jews who lived in the city were concentrated in the ghetto in the poorest neighborhood, to which some 600 refugees were added, which increased overcrowding, starvation and disease. Alongside concentration in the ghetto and deportations to extermination camps, the Germans were engaged in the liquidation of Jewish communities in the Polish provinces. These operations were preceded by “intimidation operations” designed to break the spirit of the Jews. The acts of terror and murder also included public hangings organized according to Himmler’s orders. On March 17, 1942, a public hanging was held in Podbice, in the square near the church, when the Germans forced all the inhabitants of the ghetto to watch the hanging. A few weeks after the public hanging, in April 1942, the deportation from the Poddebice ghetto began. The Jews were concentrated in the local church and held there for ten days without water or food. The Germans then conducted selections: the elderly and the children were murdered on the spot. Those found suitable for forced labor were sent to the Lodz ghetto and the rest were sent to the Chelmno extermination camp, where they were murdered in gas trucks. Abraham’s family perished in those days, the terrible days of the Holocaust. He was saved after he found refuge in a Christian family house, and later on he began working in a sausage factory that was essential to the Germans. With the victory of war and liberation, in 1945, he immigrated to Eretz Israel. Avraham settled in Ramat Gan and began to rebuild his life. When the War of Independence broke out, Avraham enlisted in the Haganah and was assigned to the Carmeli Brigade, brigade number 2. Carmeli was assigned to defend the northwestern part of the country, Haifa and the Western Galilee. He was stationed as part of the reinforcements to protect Kibbutz Yehiam in the Western Galilee. Founded in 1946, Kibbutz Yehiam was located on a hill near an ancient fortress, a lonely settlement in the Lev of a hostile Arab region. At the beginning of 1948, when hundreds of fighters of the “Salvation Army” penetrated the north of the country, under the command of Kaukji, they immediately set out to conquer the isolated and small settlement that one narrow road connected to Nahariya. On January 20, 1948, Kibbutz Yehiam was attacked by hundreds of Arab fighters of the “Salvation Army.” The kibbutz suffered a heavy bombardment, with a handful of settlers and fighters from the Carmeli Brigade protecting it with their own bodies. , And his men were rescued during a fierce battle, and Abraham was killed at the age of 20. He was brought to eternal rest in the Nahalat Yitzhak military cemetery, and two days after the fall of Abraham, 46 Carmeli fighters fell in a convoy to the kibbutz To transport supplies, fortifications and reinforcements to the area, and to attack it nearby. “Yehiam was liberated from the Arab siege only in May 1948, “The Last Martyrs” are Holocaust survivors who remained the last remnant of their nuclear family (parents, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters), who experienced the Holocaust in the ghettos and / or the concentration and extermination camps.
