1928

Netiva ("Tiva") Ben-Yehuda was born in Tel Aviv, in Mandate Palestine, on 26 July 1928.

Ben-Yehuda joined the Palmach at the age of 18 and was trained in demolition, bomb disposal, topography, and scouting.

On February 11, 1948, Ben-Yehuda and her comrades planted a mine for a busload of Arabs.

This event and the ensuing death impacted Ben-Yehuda psychologically.

She was the host of a late-night Israel Radio show for 14 years where she played old-time Israeli songs and spoke with callers.

She was a resident of Palmach Street in the capital, and the local cafe she patronized on that street became known as "Cafe Netiva."

2004

In 2004, Ben Yehuda received the Yakir Yerushalayim (Worthy Citizen of Jerusalem) award from the city of Jerusalem.

On the subject of the Palmach: "I don't think that there has ever been any other underground movement in the world in which 'male chauvinism' triumphed so powerfully and so proudly".
