PM sends condolences to family of killed soldier

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sends condolences to the family of Sgt. Elhai Teharlev, who was killed in a car-ramming attack in the central West Bank this morning.

The prime minister notes that the slain soldier studied at the Mekor Haim school and was friends with the three Israeli teenagers who were kidnapped and murdered in the summer of 2014.

“Elhai was very loved by his friends and family. He was an inseparable part of the community of Talmon, which today is mourning the terrible murder,” Netanyahu writes in a Facebook post, referring to the settlement where Teharlev lived.

“May his memory be a blessing, and may his name be rooted in our hearts forever,” Netanyahu writes.
