leaving a pro-government rally.
He was shot three times and was taken to Tel Aviv's Hospital in serious
condition.
Witnesses say he was covered in blood.
He was operated on and died an hour after the shooting.
An official says police have arrested the gunman, identified as being
affiliated with an Israeli right-wing group.
