IDF identifies remains of soldier killed in Cyprus, buried as unknown in Haifa since 1948
The IDF announced on Wednesday that after a lengthy investigation, the burial place of IDF soldier Shlomo Haimson, whose burial place had been unknown for almost 78 years, has been located.
Haimson was killed by guards at a detention camp in Cyprus during an escape attempt in September 1948.
It was determined that he is buried in the immigrant section of the Haifa cemetery. His family was informed last night that his burial place had been located.
