Netanyahu Visits Family of Yehuda Katz, IDF Soldier Returned After 44 Years

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the family of Lieutenant Yehuda Yekutiel Katz, the last missing soldier from the 1982 Battle of Sultan Yaakov, whose remains were recently returned to Israel. The return was accomplished through a special operation conducted by the Israel Defense Forces and the Mossad. Netanyahu expressed his deep emotion over the soldier's repatriation and lamented that Katz's parents did not live to witness this moment. He also remarked that bringing Katz home to Israel fulfilled the phrase he often quoted: 'Better a good question than a weak excuse.'
