Sheffi Paz, prominent Tel Aviv anti-illegal immigration activist, dies at 74
Paz died following a battle with cancer. The disease was diagnosed for the fourth time over the past month, after she had previously battled cancer on three occasions
Assessment
Paz's death removes a polarizing figure from Tel Aviv's activism scene at a moment when immigration policy remains a live national issue. Her four separate cancer diagnoses over the years made the final decline swift. Watch whether her movement finds a successor or loses momentum without her organizing force.
