Mordechai, Nadiv

Nadiv, son of Hasina and Salah, was born in Jerusalem on July 6, 1952, to parents who immigrated to Israel in 1951 from Kurdistan. Nadiv began his military service in August 1972, as part of the academic reserve for teachers, and was appointed as a teacher by the Re’em Lifshitz Teachers’ College. On the eve of the Yom Kippur of 1973, east of the “petting” position, the tank was hit in the dunes during the night traffic, and while Nadiv tried to release the stuck machine gun, the tank was hit by a direct hit. They were killed on the spot, and the battalion’s commanders sent another tank to the area to rescue the damaged tank, but Nadiv’s body was not found, and his memorial was placed in the area of ​​the deceased’s remains on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem. Twenty-six years after his fall, on December 9, 1999, Nadiv was brought to Israel’s Tomb on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem.
