Former Labor Party MK Yael Dayan is laid to rest at the Kiryat Shaul cemetery in Tel Aviv.
She died yesterday at the age of 85 after a prolonged battle with lung disease.
Dayan, daughter of famed former defense minister and IDF chief of staff Moshe Dayan, served as a Labor MK from 1993 until 2003.
She was later a representative of the dovish Meretz party on the Tel Aviv city council.
Dayan had for decades suffered from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
