Likud Science and Technology Minister Ofir Akunis is applauded after ceding his alloted speech time to a bereaved mother at a cemetery in Tel Aviv.

Instead of speaking, Akunis invites Nanette Mondshein, the mother of Shawn Mondshein, who was killed during Operation Protective Edge in Gaza, to address those gathered at the Nahalat Yitzhak cemetery.
