Grieving Father Recounts Son's Death in Gaza Ambush

Rafi Arvas, a father who lost his son in Gaza, shared his profound grief and the harrowing details of his son's final moments in a recent interview with 'Kikar FM'. Arvas described the moment he realized his son would not return alive from Gaza, recalling the family's shock after receiving the last phone call.

He recounted the devastating instant he heard about the "Tiger disaster," an ambush in Gaza, and the overwhelming pain that led him to slam his head against a container in the Yemen field, a cry he described as tearing the sky apart. Arvas read his son's will, a testament to the deep bond they shared and the immense loss he is experiencing.

The interview, hosted by Eli Gutelf, is described as a "shattering" account of the "Tiger disaster" and a "chilling moral conversation" ahead of the High Holidays. Arvas expressed a sentiment of profound despair, stating he wished his son had returned even with amputated limbs, as he would at least have been able to embrace him.
