Hundreds attend funeral of rabbi killed in West Bank terror attack

Hundreds of mourners attend the funeral of Rabbi Raziel Shevach, who was shot dead in terror attack last night, near the West Bank outpost where he lived.

The funeral at Havat Gilad is also attended by Education Minister Naftali Bennett, Agriculture Minister Uri Ariel, former Shas leader Eli Yishai, Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi David Lau and Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan.

Shevach, a 36-year-old father of six, is the first person to be buried at the illegal outpost Havat Gilad at his own request.
