The face of the card shows a picture of the Israeli delegation at the opening ceremony, and the reverse side are the names of the 11 murdered athletes. The Telecard, which went on sale in August, is for 50 units and sells for 28 shekels. On 28 September 2005, the 33rd anniversary of the tragic event (according to the Hebrew date), the card will be displayed at the State ceremony organized by the Olympic Committee, which will take place at the memorial site in Weizmann Street, Tel Aviv. A framed photograph of the card will be presented by Bezeq representatives to the athletes' families. "Bezeq sees great importance in the commemoration of the Israeli athletes, as a social message," said Eldad Cohen, manager of the Marketing Department. "In 2004 more than 3 million Telecards were sold. Such widespread distribution is a good platform for disseminating important social messages relating to the Israeli experience." On 5 September 1972, eight Black September terrorists burst into the Israeli living quarters in the Olympic Village and sullied the Olympic flag by murdering 11 members of the Israeli delegation. The Olympic Committee in Israel commemorates the legacy of those victims: David Berger Yossef Gottfreund Moshe Weinberg Eliezer Halfin Mark Slavin Ze'ev Friedman Yossef Romano Kahat Shor Andrei Spitzer Amizur Shapira Yaakov Springer May their memory be blessed .
