Son of Iran’s last shah pays condolence call to Dee family, visits Western Wall

Reza Pahlavi, the son of the last shah of Iran, pays a condolence call to the Dee family in West Bank settlement of Efrat.

Pahlavi, who is on his first visit to Israel, meets with Leo Dee, whose wife and two of his children were killed in a shooting attack two weeks ago.

Dee thanked Pahlavi for coming to visit him and the former royal signs a book of Psalms for the Dee family.

Lucy Dee, 48, and her daughters Maia Dee, 20, and Rina Dee, 15, were killed after Palestinian terrorists opened fire at their car as they drove through the northern Jordan Valley on April 7. The daughters were declared dead at the scene, and Lucy was rushed to a hospital in critical condition but died three days later.

Pahlavi is being hosted by Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel during the visit.

He later also visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem.
