Gali Roy Shakotai, 21, of Tzofar, was a Nahal soldier and desert-loving young man known for his kindness and endless curiosity. He had finished guard duty only hours before Hamas attacked the Sufa outpost on October 7. Gali quickly geared up, helped rescue wounded comrades and carried them to a hidden storage area, then returned to the fighting. He was killed on the front line.
