Hundreds attend funeral of slain IDF soldier

Hundreds of people arrive for the funeral of Sgt. Elhai Teharlev, who was killed in a car-ramming in the central West Bank this morning.

Teharlev is being buried in Jerusalem’s Mount Herzl military cemetery.

The soldier, 20, was from the Talmon settlement, northwest of Ramallah.

Teharlev was guarding a bus stop near the Ofra settlement when a Palestinian man drove his car into him and another soldier. Teharlev was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other soldiers suffered light injuries.
