Chana Tova Chaya Nachenberg, who died yesterday after 22 years in a coma since being critically wounded in the deadly 2001 Sbarro suicide bombing, is laid to rest.
Dozens of mourners gather in the central city of Modiin for her funeral.
Nachenberg was 31 years old on the day a Palestinian suicide bomber killed 15 civilians, including seven children, and wounded over 100 others at the Sbarro pizzeria in Jerusalem.
She became the 16th fatal victim of the bombing, among the deadliest during the Second Intifada.
Born in New York, Nachenberg was at the pizzeria that day with her daughter, Sarah, three years old at the time, who escaped from the attack physically unharmed.
