Bereaved families: No gov't official at Tel Aviv's Yom Kippur commemoration

A commotion arose during the Yom Kippur memorial ceremonies held at a military cemetery in Tel Aviv, as bereaved families discovered there was no government official present at the commemoration.

According to Yad Lebanim Chairman Eli Ben Shem, Vice Primer Moshe Ya'alon was expected to attend but had canceled three days ago. His replacement, Minister Yossi Peled, also canceled his participation last minute. (Yoav Zitun)
