Israel honors dead Chinese ambassador ahead of return to China

The body of China's ambassador to Israel, who died earlier this week, was handed to Chinese authorities in a ceremony at Israel's Ben Gurion international airport on Wednesday.

Soldiers from Israel's military police, wearing surgical masks, white peak hats and armbands over their olive green uniforms carried the ambassador's wooden coffin, covered by the red and yellow Chinese flag, an AFP correspondent reported.
