The investigation continues into the tragedy at Mt. Herzl yesterday during rehearsals for the Independence Day Ceremony to take place next week. A 20 year old female IDF officer, who had served in the Jordan Valley and was at the site supervising the Color Guard, was killed and others injured, one seriously, when the steel lighting rigging collapsed.
Thousands accompanied IDF Officer HIla Bezaleli to her final resting place last night.
"She was just 20 years old", mourned the officer's brother, "and all because some worker did not tighten a screw properly."
