STORYLINE:
Hundreds of mourners attended the funeral of Israeli soldier, Oron Shaul, whose body was recovered in the Gaza Strip by the army on Sunday.
Shaul was killed on July 20, 2014, during fighting between Israel and Hamas.
His body and that of another soldier, Hadar Goldin, had been held by militants since then despite a public campaign to return them by their families.
His remains were recovered hours before three Israeli hostages were released, and the start of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
The Hostages Families Forum, which represents relatives of the captives, called the Shaul family an “inseparable part” of the group.
Militants still hold the bodies of Goldin as well as two Israelis who crossed into Gaza in 2014 and 2015 on their own.
