The Israeli Scout Movement on Thursday held a memorial service for Taylor Force, the American graduate student killed in a terror attack in Tel Aviv last month.

The event marked 30 days — the shloshim mourning period in Judaism — since the March 9 death of Force, an MBA student at Vanderbilt University who was on a school trip to Israel to learn about the high-tech industry when he was killed.

As many as 10 people were wounded in the stabbing attack at and near the Jaffa Port.
