Jacqueline Benisti, the sister of the singers Eti Levy and Zahava Ben, visited the grave of her father, the late musician Shimon Benisti, in the old cemetery in Be'er Sheva and discovered her father's tombstone defaced.

This is not the first time that Benisti's grave has been vandalized after having been recently renovated.

This is the third time this has occurred, the previous incident occurred only a few months ago; it is as yet unknown who is responsible for the despicable acts.

Zehava Ben is one of Israel's favorite singers whose many hit songs are known in every household in Israel.
