During World War II his parents were murdered in a German extermination camp. Zvi-Abraham wandered from place to place until in 1941 he succeeded in immigrating to Israel. He spent two years in an immigrant youth group, adapted to the life of the country and went to Kibbutz Maagan, where he worked as a tractor operator and was known as a devoted and diligent worker.

He married a wife, moved to Netanya and joined a cooperative group for a brick industry. Was full of initiative and daring, ferocious and ferocious. Zvi-Avraham was one of the few to speak, but he insisted with vigorous persistence and enthusiasm on the fulfillment of his ambitions. He was an athlete from his childhood and in Israel participated in soccer and running competitions and two sports teams tried to attract him as a friend. When the days of curfew and military rule began, following the actions of the revolt against the British, work diminished and he opened a small workshop for frameworks and repairs. He devoted most of his time to training in the Haganah and was assigned to various fronts. During the War of Independence, on the 3rd of Iyar 5708 (13.5.1948), he left with a Palam squad from Kfar Hess towards the Arab castle for a combat operation and was stationed in the machine gun squad that promised the wings. In the ensuing battle, the squad deployed the enemy, but the Arabs immediately received strong reinforcements and opened concentrated fire on the squad. One of the members fell and Zvi, who was advancing toward the enemy to take revenge on his friend, was hit in the head and killed on the spot. He was laid to rest at the cemetery in Tel Mond. In his last letter (which he wrote three days before his death) he wrote: “This week our flag will fly to the eyes of the world … The spirit of freedom will praise him … Do not doze, drummer!
