Fighters against Nazis Medal (Hebrew: אות הלוחם בנאצים, romanized: Ot Halohem BaNatzim) is an Israeli decoration that is awarded to World War II veterans.
First instituted as a ribbon bar in 1967, it was first awarded to World War II veterans at Yom HaShoah (7 May) the same year by the Prime Minister of Israel, Levi Eshkol.
In 1985 to mark 40 years to victory in World War II, an Israeli flag with the ribbon bar was awarded to a number of museums dedicated to the war.
In 2000, a medal was created from the ribbon bar.
