WATCH: Beit Shemesh bids farewell to fallen soldier Zamir Burke

Zamir Burke was only 20 when he was murdered by an RPG in Gaza, while defending his country. Not only was Zamir a brave commander, but also he was a beloved generous friend, an outstanding student and a volunteer for special-needs kids. He will be sorely missed.
