Hila Bezaleli

Israeli soldier Hila Bezaleli, age 20, died on April 18, 2012, at Mount Herzl, in Jerusalem.

Mount Herzl is the national cemetery of Israel on the west side of Jerusalem.

Hila was killed when a light rigging system collapsed onto soldiers rehearsing for the Independence Day celebrations. A police investigation is focusing on gross negligence by the company responsible for building the light rigging system, which may not have had the proper permits.

Hila was a medic in the Israeli Army and dreamed of one day becoming a doctor. 

She lived in the Jerusalem suburb of Mevaseret Zion. She attended Boyer High School in Jerusalem. Friends there describe her as elegant and poised, witty, helpful and a passionate Zionist. 

Pray for Hila and
all women who die
young and
tragically
Other friends describe Hila as a passionate leader with a perfect smile who was filled with love for her friends and family. 

Hila is survived by many loving friends and relatives including her mother, Sigalit Bezaleli and 3 brothers. 

Pray for all who die young and tragically. 

Let us pray that Hila Bezaleli is in heaven. Let us pray that she is at peace and is with God. Amen.
