Attia, Moshe

Son of Dadon-Tara and Israel, was born on September 16, 1929, in the city of Appalo, the Oran region of Algeria, and immigrated from Tunis to Israel in 1948 with the reinforcements who fled to join the War of Independence. As a religious recruiter, he was sent to a stream farm in the Hula Valley, in the Ussishkin Fortress, in the framework of reinforcements to the agriculture and to protect the place. Moshe lived with one of the settlers and was very fond of the members of the house as a quiet and good-natured fellow, observing the commandments and doing his work with faith. He aspired to join a religious fighting unit, which would settle in at the end of the war. Moshe died in Ramot Naftali on Sunday, June 8, 1948, and was buried in Ramot Naftali on March 16, 1950. He was laid to rest in the Nachlat Yitzhak military cemetery.
