Danny Wobek and Oren Stern fought terrorists heroically at Kibbutz Nativ Ha’asarah 

With the onset of the attack on Kibbutz Native Ha’asarah near the Gaza border, Danny 

Wobak (45) and Major Oren Stern (49) who was a member of the kibbutz security team, ran 

out to fight the terrorists that had infiltrated the kibbutz. Not having enough time to 

properly prepare, Danny was wearing beach sandals and carrying only his personal firearm 

and his friend Oren had a rifle. When a terrorist shot at them from behind the door of the 

neighbors’ house, their dog Rakbin – a Doggo Argentino – charged at the terrorist and scared 

him away. Tragically, the terrorist took multiple shots and Rakbin and killed him. But thanks 

to the canine’s heroics, Danny Woben an Oren Stern were able to fire back at the terrorists. 

Tragically all three lost their lives, but Rakbin’s owners, Iliah Kabalin and his partner, were 

able to hide and were saved. Danny Wobak volunteered for years with Zaka’s scuba divers’ 

unit and was involved in many events of saving lives and bringing victims to an honorable 

burial. May they rest in peace.
