Monday, May 26, 2025, 18:56 After a prolonged battle with cancer, Attorney Doron Nir Tzvi, z”l, passed away on Monday, May 26. Hundreds of friends and family members prayed for his recovery. Prior to his passing, a large prayer gathering was held at the Western Wall, with the participation of rabbis. Nir Tzvi continued his efforts for the People and Land of Israel from his sickbed. He published many articles in the print media and on various websites up until the last months of his life.
Nir Tzvi had supported Honenu since its founding and was a member of the organization’s public advisory council. For decades, he led legal efforts to redeem land in Jerusalem, Yehuda and Shomron. He was a leading figure fighting for the Land of Israel in the legal arena, and an expert jurist in land law pertaining to the Yehuda and Shomron regions. He and his family participated in the founding of Givat Harel and Havat Ya’ir, both communities in the Shomron. Nir Tzvi left behind a wife, children, and grandchildren.
Honenu Director Shmuel (Zangi) Meidad eulogized Attorney Nir Tzvi: “Doron, my dear brother, my partner in everything holy for the sake of Israel. A man of truth and faith. You always joined every fight upholding the legal rights of Jews in the Land of Israel. You answered every call for assistance from us, and refused to accept payment.
“You were a true professional and a righteous man, always humble, quiet, peaceful, and exacting. You returned land to Jewish ownership, and led legal proceedings to defend and establish Jewish communities in Yehuda and Shomron. Your passing is a great loss. Despite prolonged and severe suffering, you always conveyed joy and optimism. Your many good deeds will be a blessing for you and your family forever.”
