 | | Rabin's bureau chief, Eitan Haber, announced outside the gates of the hospital: The government of Israel announces in amazement, in great sadness, and in deep sorrow, the death of prime minister and minister of defense Yitzhak Rabin, who was murdered by an assassin, tonight in Tel Aviv. |
 | | In Rabin's pocket was a blood-stained sheet of paper with the words to Shir Lashalom ("Song to Peace"), which ironically dwells on the impossibility of bringing a dead person back to life and therefore the need for peace. |
 | | Rabin was buried at the Mount Herzl cemetery for Israeli leaders, in Jerusalem. |
