Naor Porat, brother of IDF soldier Lidor Porat who was killed in Lebanon two months ago, has launched a fundraising campaign to build a national beit midrash (study hall) in Ashdod, the city where his brother grew up. The project aims to educate about mission and love of the land in Lidor's memory, according to a social media appeal.
Lidor Porat, a reservist who served seven reserve duty cycles, was killed in Lebanon two months ago when an explosive device was activated on his force. His brother Naor is now leading a fundraising effort to build a national beit midrash (study hall) in Ashdod, aiming to educate about mission and love of the land. The campaign is being promoted on social media, with a Charidy link for donations. The Zioneer has previously covered similar memorial projects by families of fallen soldiers, though this is a new initiative specific to Lidor's memory.
