The Foreign Ministry has assisted with the transportation of the teen's remains, which are set to be buried on Monday afternoon.

Reuben Landau, an Israeli teen from moshav of Beit Arif in central Israel, was killed in an ATV accident in Canada, Israeli media reported Monday.

Eighteen-year-old Landau's friend, who accompanied him on a pre-military service trip to North America, was seriously injured in the accident.

The Foreign Ministry has assisted with the transportation of the teen's remains, which arrived in Israel on Monday morning ahead of his burial on Monday afternoon.

In that incident, the ATV reportedly overturned after veering to the right and hitting a tree in Kamari. Greek police also said that her partner was hospitalized after being lightly injured.
