Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu eulogized former Knesset member Geulah Cohen on Thursday during her funeral on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, saying, "We are not only parting from Geulah today but from an entire generation. But also from a generation of struggle in whose merit we are living in today."

Netanyahu added, "Geulah fought all of her life for the redemption [Geulah in Hebrew] of the land and the redemption of the people. Her gaze has always far. For her, the ancient and contemporary Zion are one as they are for us."
