Israelis mourn 19-year-old soldier killed in explosion in Rafah operations

Mourners attend the funeral of a 19-year-old Israeli soldier in Jerusalem on Tuesday. Israelis came together to pay their respects to the young soldier and his fellow officers saluted Sergeant Almog Shaloms coffin covered by an Israeli flag. He was of one of four soldiers killed Monday in an explosion in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. The explosives the Israeli army was using to clear the building were triggered prematurely, causing it to collapse, killing the soldiers and wounding 11.
