Chief of Staff Benny Gantz of the Israel Defense Forces addressed the annual observance in memory of fallen artillery soldiers, Thursday evening, at the Beit Hatotchan artillery memorial site in Zichron Ya'akov.

The lieutenant-general told those in attendance, "Even on this occasion we remember the missing of the IDF, including Guy Hever, an artillery soldier, who left on our behalf, to carry out their mission and did not return home. Rest assured that we are constantly working on all levels to return them to us."
