Funeral for 3rd soldier killed in car crash set for tomorrow afternoon
The IDF announces the funeral of Staff Sgt. Shiloh Siman-Tov will be held at 2:30 p.m. in the military section of the Segula Cemetery in Petah Tikva.
Siman-Tov passed away earlier this evening from injuries he sustained from an accident last week, when a truck driver slammed into a convoy of IDF vehicles on Route 6.
Friends and neighbors from the West Bank settlement of Tzofim remembered him as good-hearted and athletic.
“He was always smiling, he loved to volunteer, he was righteous. Everyone loved him and knew him. He was an athlete who played in many of the Samaria sports leagues. This is a major loss for the community,” Yehuda Berkiah, a Tzofim resident said.
