Relatives and friends bid farewell to the 26-year-old who died on Tuesday in the Jaffa terror attack in Tel Aviv
Heavy mourning at the funeral Iona Karousi in the Greek Orthodox cemetery, in the old city of Jerusalem. The funeral was performed by the Patriarch of Jerusalem Theophilos III.
Relatives and friends said their last “farewell” to the 26-year-old, who died on Tuesday, during terrorist attack in Jaffa in Tel Aviv when, while at a tram station, two Palestinians of West Bank origin opened fire with an automatic weapon and attacked with a knife, killing a total of seven people.
The two perpetrators were “neutralized” by passers-by who used their personal weapons.
Ionas Karousis was an architecture student, the son of the well-known neurosurgeon Dimitris Karousis, director of the Multiple Sclerosis Center of the Neurology department of Hadassah University Hospital, and Dr. Urania Vourkas.
The parents of the unfortunate young man moved to Israel in 1988.
In an atmosphere of deep emotion, the memorial service was held at noon on Saturday at the Holy Temple of God Sophia, so that his people who could not go to Jerusalem for the funeral, could say the last “goodbye” to Jonah.
