 | | The identity of the head of the police's special anti-terror unit (Yamam) was released for publication for the first time this morning, on the occasion of his departure. |
 | | Zohar Dvir, who headed the Yamam for the past five and a half years, joined the unit seven and a half years ago, after years of serving in the career army, where he commanded the Golani unit, among other things. |
 | | Yamam was established in 1974 after the terror attack in Ma'alot (when members of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine attacked a school and killed 26), and engages mainly in special anti-terror activity, cooperating closely with Israel Defense Forces' commando units, mainly the general staff's "reconnaissance unit" (Sayeret Matkal). |
