Israeli President Isaac Herzog has decided to include Tali Manes in the list of candidates for the Presidential Award for Civilian Courage. The decision came after a review of additional evidence concerning an incident aboard a passenger plane.
Initially, the President's office announced four recipients for heroism during a flight from Dubai. However, new information about the incident was later provided to the committee. Upon receiving these details, President Herzog personally contacted Tali Manes, wife of Tzvi Manes, informing her of his intention to submit her candidacy to the advisory committee.
According to the collected materials, Tali Manes played a crucial role in mitigating the consequences of an emergency and saving lives on board. When sounds of struggle, noise, and confusion were heard from the cockpit, she was the first to react. She warned other passengers of the danger and promptly called for help, which helped prevent a worse outcome.
The Presidential Award for Civilian Courage is presented to citizens who demonstrate exceptional bravery, selflessness, and determination in critical situations to save the lives of others.
