Rabbi Nadav Yehuda Natan, a Chabad chossid who lived in the northern Israeli city of Harish, tragically passed away on Thursday, 29 Shvat.
He was 39.
Rabbi Natan served as a dedicated teacher at the Chabad school on the city of Hadera. His friends described him as a “stellar educator and a sweet and special person.”
Rabbi Natan’s younger brother Yissachar Natan fell in battle with the Hamas terrorists two months ago, and friends of Rabbi Natan said that he was heartbroken at his brother’s death and died of a sudden cardiac arrest.
He is survived by his wife and six children, as well as his parents, Rav Avishai and Leah Natan, members of the Nachalas Har Chabad community in Kiryat Malachi.
Hundreds of people demonstrated in Jerusalem due to police demands to perform an autopsy on the body of Rabbi Natan, although Zaka officials say that the cause of death is already known.

Dear Natan Family,
We are mourning with you, over the loss of your two beautiful sons, both heroes and tzaddikim. May Hashem bring Mashiach immediately, and we can all say the bracha of Mechayeh HaMeisim.
My heart grieves for the family!!! Two young and vibrant sons taken from them within months – the pain they’re going through is unfathomable. Hashem, please have mercy on this family and klal Yisroel. Their loss is our loss – we are one family. May the Abishter console and comfort them, give them strength, and bless them to be reunited with their beloved sons/fathers/brothers with geula shlaimah NOW!!
