MK Moti Yogev (United Right) responded to the return of the body of Zecharia Baumel.
"The people of Israel live on memory and never forget about the fallen and missing." An intelligence and operational effort of 37 years led to the return of Zecharia Baumel, one of the missing soldiers of Sultan Yacoub. Over the past 37 years, we have remembered Zecharia and his friends Yehuda and Zvika, as well as Hadar and Oron, Eli Cohen and all of our missing people. We will continue to turn every stone until we return all those who are missing to us, to graves in Israel. The people of Israel live, "said MK Yogev.
