Hundreds of people took part in special tefillos at the Kosel on Thursday for the return of the bodies of IDF soldiers Hadar Goldin, Hy”d, and Oron Shaul, Hy”d, who were killed in the 2014 Gaza war.

The tefillos were led by Chief Ashkenazi Rabbi of Yerushalayim Rabbi Aryeh Stern and Tzfas Chief Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, flanking Hadar’s father, Simcha Goldin.
