A 53-year-old Israeli woman was killed over the weekend during a family trip to Panama, when a dune buggy she was riding crashed, the Foreign Ministry said Saturday.

The woman had traveled to the Central American nation with her husband and daughter to meet their son, who was finishing his trip through South America.

Foreign Ministry officials said they were helping coordinate the transport of the woman’s body to Israel.
