Israel mourns death of hero's son
Israel is mourning the death in a plane crash of the pilot son of the country's first astronaut, Ilan Ramon, himself killed in the Columbia shuttle tragedy.
Assaf Ramon, 21, died on Sunday when the Israeli F-16 fighter jet he was flying crashed in the West Bank.
His father Ilan - an Israeli national hero - died with six other astronauts in the explosion of the space shuttle Columbia in 2003.
