Two weeks ago, Major Yehuda Natan Cohen was killed in battle in the northern Gaza Strip, a 25-year-old from Mishdom Mahola, a company commander in the Givati patrol. Yehuda was an outstanding athlete and also a talented chess player who was one of the representative team of the Jordan Valley-Tiberias club in the league games. His teammate, Assaf Sofer, testifies that he was a "serial victimizer who strives for contact and attacks... His games were always wild-tempered, with surprising tactics." A faithful example of his style is the position in front of us from one of his battles, which we received from Assaf: with less than a minute left on his watch Yehuda pulled out, with the weapons Rim, the decisive ruse that so crippled his bold approach to the struggle. How?
