Omer began his journey with Magen David Adom in 2018 as a youth volunteer at the Ma’ale Adumim station. He later completed a first aid instructors course, joined the training staff, and trained new youth volunteers.
He advanced in his training as an EMT and served as a first responder. Even during his military service, he continued to volunteer, returning to Magen David Adom shifts during his leave.
Omer loved reading and writing and played the flute, piano, guitar, and harmonica. He dreamed of practicing medicine.
Omer served as a squad leader in the Rotem Battalion of the Givati Brigade. On June 2, 2025, he fell in an explosive device blast in Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip.
Omer was laid to rest at the Mount Herzl Military Cemetery. He is survived by his parents, two brothers, a sister, and his partner.
A bulletproof Magen David Adom mobile intensive care unit was dedicated in his memory and stationed in Ma’ale Adumim. A line from a poem he wrote about the moment a pulse returns during CPR was inscribed on the vehicle:
“But there is always one hope on the horizon, to stop compressions and continue ventilations, a pulse has returned”.
His father, Hagai, shared that the family found the poem after he fell, and that it was written about a story of saving lives—a theme that was central to Omer’s life.
May his memory be a blessing.
