Israel’s former prime minister Yitzhak Shamir dies aged 96

He made his final appearance on the international stage at the 1991 Madrid
international conference which led to peace talks between Israel and its
Arab neighbours.

Following Likud’s defeat to Labour in 1992 elections, Mr Shamir retired from
political life in 1996.

The funeral is to take place on Monday in Jerusalem, where he is to be buried
alongside his wife, Shulamit, who died last July.
