Herzog to Recommend Civilian Bravery Medal for Four Flydubai Rescuers
Published
President Isaac Herzog has told four rescuers from the Israel-bound Flydubai flight that he intends to recommend them for the President's Medal for Civilian Bravery. He spoke with Yaniv Hayun, Dr. Shota Musaev, Tzvika Menas and Asaf Rajuan, whose actions his office credited with overcoming the attacker despite danger to their lives. Hayun helped stabilize the aircraft, while Musaev treated the wounded captain. Herzog also thanked Indian captain Smit Machchhar and acknowledged Tali Menas, who raised the alarm. The proposed recognition still requires review and a recommendation from the medal's advisory committee.
