The remains of an Israeli man who was killed by Ukrainian troops due to apparent mistaken identity are being flown back to Israel ahead of his funeral later today.
Roman Brodsky’s coffin is flown from Ukraine to Moldova, and then Romania, before arriving in Israel, the Foreign Ministry says.
Brodsky was shot dead by Ukrainian troops after he was apparently mistaken for a Chechen soldier earlier this week.
The funeral in Israel is expected to take place later today.
