congratulations to the courageous Israeli climbers who conquered the highest
peak on Earth: Doron Arel (1992), Dudi Yifrach, Micha Yaniv (2006), Daniel
Keren (2008), Daniel Wolfson (2021), Barak Matalon, Roi Negri (2022), Aviad

These achievements, displays the Israeli spirit with the hope to inspires
future generations of mountaineers.
