Israel finds 1982 Lebanon soldier remains
The Israeli army has found the remains of soldier Yehuda Kats, who had been missing since the Battle of Sultan Yaqoub in 1982 during the Lebanon invasion. The remains were discovered after 44 years of disappearance, in a covert operation based on intelligence information, just hours before the ceasefire at that time. It is worth noting that Kats was one of three reserve soldiers who went missing during the battle, alongside Zakaria Baumel and Tzvi Feldman, with Baumel's remains being returned in 2019 and Feldman's in 2025. The army is currently examining the artifacts recently discovered, which are believed to belong to Kats, with plans to issue an official statement once their identity is confirmed. The Battle of Sultan Yaqoub took place in Lebanon on June 11, 1982, between Syrian and Israeli forces and Lebanese factions, resulting in the death of 20 Israeli soldiers and the loss of six others.
