Operation Arnon
The only Israeli casualty from the operation was 36-year-old father of two, Ch.-Insp. Arnon Zamora, who succumbed to his wounds in hospital following the operation.
IDF command has decided to rename the operation in his honor to "Operation Arnon," renaming operations in honor of fallen soldiers is a common practice in the IDF, for example, with the 1976 Entebbe Raid being renamed after Yonatan Netanayhu.
