Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived on Wednesday to offer condolences at the family home of Sgt. First Class Yehuda Yekutiel Katz, of blessed memory, the last missing soldier from the Battle of Sultan Yacoub, whose remains were brought to Israel in a special operation by the IDF and the Mossad.
The Prime Minister told the family members that he is deeply moved, together with the entire nation of Israel, by the return of Yehuda, of blessed memory, and expressed sorrow that his parents, Sarah and Yosef, of blessed memory, did not live to see this moment.
The family told the Prime Minister about the inspiring character of Yehuda, of blessed memory, who was a Torah scholar, a man of values, and a professional and devoted fighter.
They noted that his return for proper Jewish burial embodies the phrase he used to say: "A challenging question is better than a flimsy explanation".
