An Israel Air Force jet took off for India on Sunday with a team who will assist in the transfer back to Israel of those killed at the Chabad-Lubavitch center in Mumbai.

The funerals for Chabad House directors Rabbi Gavriel and Rivka Holtzberg would likely not take place before Tuesday morning, officials said.

The delegation onboard was comprised of contingents from the Israeli Foreign Ministry, the Israel Defense Force, and the Israel Police.

I do not think it should be rebuilt. I think every single inch should be left exactly as it is. As a memorial. As a permanent sign. No Jew should go to India ever again. Not for business. Not for kashrus. Every country should know that if you do this to one of our family, you will no longer benefit from our presence.
