Channel 14 reports that the remains of Shimon and Rivka Herzl, grandparents of Theodor Herzl, have been brought to burial in Israel, concluding a four-year operation to transfer their remains from Serbia.
01 · THE DISPATCH
As The Zioneer previously reported, the remains of Shimon and Rivka Herzl, grandparents of Theodor Herzl, were reinterred in Jerusalem on Wednesday evening. The operation to bring them from Serbia spanned four years, including a formal handover ceremony in Belgrade in late July. Channel 14 now confirms the burial has been completed in Israel. The reinterment of Herzl's grandparents carries symbolic weight for the Zionist movement, as it reunites the family in the land Herzl envisioned as a Jewish state.
