Israel to fly body of Eritrean murdered in Be'er Sheva attack home

Although Haftom Zarhum, the Eritrean who was lynched after being shot in the Be'er Sheva attack will not be recognized as an official victim of terrorism  - the state will finance flying his body back to Eritrea via Cairo.

Initially Israeli social security resisted the move for fear that the mere financing of the flight would be construed as recognition of his status as an official victim of terror, but later changed their position and will share the cost with the Foreign Ministry.
