Paratroopers at the Western Wall is a photograph taken on 7 June 1967 by the Israeli photographer and photojournalist David Rubinger. Shot from a low angle, the photograph depicts three Israeli paratroopers framed against the Western Wall in the Old City of Jerusalem, shortly after its capture from Arab forces in the Six-Day War. From left to right, the soldiers are Zion Karasenti, Yitzhak Yifat, and Haim Oshri, reservists of the 66th Battalion, 55th Paratroopers Brigade. The image engenders such a strong emotional component that it has become an icon of Israel. Mishael Cheshin, a justice of the Supreme Court of Israel, said in 2001 that the photograph had "become the property of the entire nation".Photograph credit: David Rubinger
