President Reuven Rivlin eulogized former Sderot Mayor Eli Moyal and said, "Eli was a dear friend and a loyal envoy of the residents of Sderot. I remember vividly, from my days as a Knesset member, Eli's uncompromising commitment to the mission, the day-to-day work for the residents of the south and of Sderot out of true love."

"Eli built Sderot as a metropolis in Israel while not sparing efforts and caring for the safety of residents as well as their ability to earn a living with dignity and well-being. Even in difficult times and after he left office, Eli always remained committed to his mission. The people of Israel will remember him as one of its special sons,” Rivlin added.
