The funeral has taken place of 22-year old Irish-Israeli woman Kim Damti, who died after a Hamas attack at a music festival in Israel last weekend.
Her family in Israel and Ireland confirmed her death last night, with President Michael D Higgins leading the tributes.
"The circumstances in which her life was taken, having travelled as she did to attend a music festival, are truly appalling. Former President Mary Robinson became emotional speaking about the murder of Ms Damti when she appeared on RTÉ's News at One. "Our thoughts remain with all the families of those who have died, who are injured or who are missing in the wake of these terrible events. May her memory be a blessing."
