Parents of hostage killed in Gaza pay tribute at his funeral | Israel-Hamas war

The parents of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, an American-Israeli hostage killed in Gaza, have paid tribute to him at his funeral in Jerusalem.

He was murdered alongside five other hostages in a tunnel in the Rafah area of southern Gaza.

Mrs Goldberg asked: "What must I have done in a past life to deserve such a gift?", adding "I am so grateful to God for giving me this magnificent present of my Hersh. I just wish it had been for longer."
