President Isaac Herzog eulogizes musical and literary giant Yehonatan Geffen, who passed away earlier today at the age of 76.

Herzog describes Geffen as “someone who knew how to capture the smallest and biggest moments, and turn them into eternal texts.”

“It is hard to imagine the existence of Israeli art, our hymns, the worlds of literature and theater without his unique and unforgettable contribution.”
