IDF reservists, members of Lt. Hadar Goldin’s company when he was killed and abducted by Hamas in 2014, traveled today to the Gaza Strip in order to escort his body back to Israel after it was returned by the terror group.

The military releases images showing Goldin’s comrades alongside the coffin with his remains, 11 years after he was killed during the 2014 Gaza War.
