Israeli Prime Minister: Veteran Counterterrorism Officer Noam Raz Was a Hero of Israel

(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Naftali Bennett told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "Over the weekend we lost one of our best people, Israel National Counter-Terrorism (INCT) Sergeant Major Noam Raz...who was wounded in an initiated operation against terrorists in the Jenin area. Noam served in the INCT for 23 years during which he participated in many operations to defend the security of the citizens of Israel." "Noam loved Israel and was a hero of Israel. Only a few weeks ago, Noam [also a paramedic], saved the life of a senior colleague who had been severely wounded in a clash with terrorists in the Tulkarem area." "Noam, a resident of the community of Kida [in the Binyamin region], leaves behind him [his wife] Efrat and six children, as well as a clear legacy - to love our country, to contribute to the state, and to fight our enemies with uncompromising determination."
