A notice issued Saturday night, July 25, announced that the funeral of Major Yuval Ezra, who was murdered in a terror attack near Havat Gilad in Samaria, will take place Sunday at 17:00 at the military cemetery in Beit Dagan. The family will observe shiva at 1 Ha'alon Street, Beit Dagan. The new schedule updates earlier reports that indicated the funeral was held Friday afternoon.
On Friday, July 24, at approximately 16:18 Jerusalem, The Zioneer first reported unverified accounts of Ezra's murder. Shortly thereafter, reports emerged that the funeral had taken place Friday afternoon in Samaria, with mourners calling for revenge. The source of the new notice setting the service for Sunday was not immediately clear, and the discrepancy may reflect a corrected or delayed schedule.
The circumstances of the attack that killed Ezra remain under investigation. No group has claimed responsibility, and further details on the incident have not been released by authorities.
