His rank was lieutenant colonel.[3]

Career

Abdallah enlisted in the IDF in 2002, in the 299th Battalion. During the 2006 Lebanon War, he was the deputy commander of a company.[1] After that, Abdallah was the battalion's commanding officer.[1] After completing his studies, he was appointed deputy commander of the 33rd Battalion in Karakal.

Abdallah later served as a paramilitary officer of the Paran Brigade, commander of the 299th Reserve Battalion, and head of the training branch of the Northern Command.[4] In the 300th Brigade, he held several senior positions, such as a brigade operations officer, a brigade safety officer, and the brigade's deputy commander.

On 9 October 2023, Abdallah was killed in the Western Galilee during an exchange of fire with militants who infiltrated from Lebanon.[5][6] He was killed one week prior to completing his military service.[7]
