Weissberg, Yehuda

Son of Dina and Moshe was born in Tiberias in 1911. In 1941-1946 he was a member of the Hish Company of the Jordan Valley, and for several years served as a reconnaissance officer, and was recruited to the Barak Battalion in the Golani Brigade and participated in the Nasser-a-Din operation near Tiberias. He took part in the first attack on a plant and the protection of a bridge in April 2002. On May 6, 1948, a Golani force took control of the village of Arav a-Zabah near Beit Keshet, took control of it and blew up some of its houses. – In the harsh retreat, many of the fighters of the force fell, and on that day, on the 27th of Nissan 5748 (1948), he was brought to eternal rest in a cemetery in Beit Keshet. Pages in his memory were dedicated to the book “Our Martyrs,” which was published by Kibbutz Ashdot Ya’akov in memory of its fallen soldiers.
