Hapoel Jerusalem basketball club inaugurated a new section at the Pais Arena Jerusalem on Saturday evening, dedicated to the memory of the team's fans who died in Israel's wars and terror attacks. The section, named "Yatzi'at HaNoflim" (The Fallen Section), will bear the names of all fallen supporters.
The club stated that 46 "reds" (a nickname for Hapoel fans) have lost their lives and will forever remain an integral part of the Hapoel family. The section is intended as a memorial and a testament to the enduring spirit of those who are no longer physically present but continue to accompany the team in their hearts during every game, song, and basket.
More than 100 bereaved family members were invited to be the first to see the memorial section before the game against Hapoel Be'er Sheva/Dimona.
