Sad News from Congregation Agudath Sholom

| We are very sorry to announce the passing of Israeli Air Force F-16I pilot Capt. Ohad Cohen Nov was killed yesterday while attempting to eject from his plane shortly before landing at the Ramon Airbase in the Negev. His navigator managed to eject and was lightly wounded. The aircraft was returning from a reprisal raid in Gaza.
Capt. Ohad, 34, had become deputy commanded of his F-16I squadron, known as the Bat Squadron, just last week. He is survived by his pregnant wife, Shahar, and a young daughter.
One of his fellow pilots said, "He was a person of gold. He was happy, funny, and had a good heart. He was always nice and courteous and smiling. He loved challenges and was an excellent pilot. He had everything."
Capt. Ohad Cohen Nov's funeral will be held on Friday at Mazor, the moshav in central Israel where he lived.
May Shahar and her family be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem and may Capt. Ohad's memory be for a blessing.
