14 years old at the time of his death.
26.4.2009-7.10.2023
"Part of a complete, warm and loving family."
Aviv and Livnat’s youngest son, a brother to Rotem and Yonatan. He was born and raised in Kfar Aza, a sweet, shy boy, kind and funny, a loyal and beloved friend. He studied at Shaar HaNegev school up to the 9th grade. As a young boy, he took an interest in sports, playing soccer and basketball. Following in his brother’s footsteps he dreamed of becoming a professional basketball player, and in the 8th grade went on to play for the youth club team of Hapoel Tel-Aviv. When he moved to HaKfar HaYarok boarding school in the 9th grade, his talent for basketball was evident and he became a dependable VIP on the team. Yiftach had only just started his studies there, but very quickly became a part of the group and made new friends. Thanks to his great personal qualities - his sensitivity, his respect for others, his big heart, and his sense of humor - he was dearly loved by his friends, coaches and all those around him.
