The Israel Bar Association is in mourning following the passing of Chaim (Enrico) Zeitman, the father of the organization's Director-General, Vered Zeitman. The Bar Association issued a statement of condolence, expressing deep sorrow to Vered Zeitman and her family.

The official announcement was signed by the Head of the Bar Association, Amit Bachar, members of the National Council, and the association's employees. The statement conveyed profound sympathy for the loss of Vered Zeitman's "dear and beloved father."

Additionally, the Tel Aviv District of the Bar Association released its own statement of mourning. The District Chairman, Lior Shapira, along with the District Committee members and community, extended their condolences to Zeitman and her family.

Vered Zeitman currently serves as the Director-General of the Bar Association. Prior to this, she held positions within the professional sphere of the Bar Association's head, Amit Bachar, including personal advisor and chief of staff. She was officially appointed as Director-General in recent months, having previously served as acting Director-General since April of this year.

Zeitman was also part of a selection committee in December 2024 that reviewed candidates for the Director-General position, alongside Erez Tchechkes, Chairman of the Jerusalem District, and Rotem Perlman, a National Council Member. Osheret Tager was ultimately chosen for the role at that time, succeeding Itay Shunein. Zeitman will be sitting Shiva in Ness Ziona.
