4th victim of Elad terrorist attack laid to rest on moshav
Shimon Maatuf, 75, who died overnight due to wounds he sustained eight months ago in a terror attack in Elad on Independence Day, is being laid to rest following a funeral in Moshav Bareket in central Israel.
“He was a humble, sensitive man,” his daughter Aviva tells the Kan public broadcaster of her father, a security guard. “He worked all the time, he made sure to provide for his family… he was always buying things for his grandchildren.”
