Finance Minister and Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman paid tribute to Jackie and Maxim Edri, the two brothers from Dimona who died of COVID-19 within about half an hour of one another.
"I regret the tragic deaths of Jackie and Maxim Edri. I have known Jackie's work over the years and his contribution to the community in general and the city of Dimona in particular."
"I strengthen their family in these painful moments and call on the public to go out and get vaccinated in order to prevent difficult incidents like this in the future," Liberman said.
