Professional teams from the Binyamin Council and the settlement Ofra are accompanying the family at this time.

Head of the Binyamin Regional Council, Israel Gantz: "Eitan, deputy company commander, a veteran of the Egoz unit, fought valiantly and led his soldiers in the Nahal Brigade on the path to destroying the enemy until he fell in battle. He grew up and was educated with dedication and love for the people and the land, and thus he lived and fell. In this difficult time, we embrace his dear wife Hallel, his parents, and all his family. The entire people of Israel are with you. Binyamin sends strength to the Ofra community standing at the front lines of the war."
