 RIO DE JANEIRO (JTA) – A newly wed Israeli man was killed and his wife seriously injured in a zip-lining accident during their honeymoon in Honduras. 
 
 Egael Tishman, 24, and Shif Fanken, 27 were on a zip-line over a treetop canopy near Roatan on the Honduran island of Bahia when they crashed into each other on Thursday, according to local media. 
 
 “The girl stayed halfway on the cable and the guy came from behind and hit her up there,” chief fire fighter Wilmer Guerrero told La Prensa newspaper. 
 
 Fanken was taken to a local hospital in serious condition and later flown to a hospital in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she underwent surgery to stabilize her condition. 
 
 The Israeli Foreign Ministry said Friday its embassy in Guatemala was arranging for Tishman’s body to be flown back to Israel for burial. 
 
 According to the La Prensa news website, the couple was on a cruise that had stopped in Roatan, a popular tourist destination. The island has several zip-line attractions that zoom tourists over treetops at high speeds. ||||| RIO DE JANEIRO (JTA) – A newly wed Israeli man was killed and his wife seriously injured in a zip-line accident during their honeymoon in Honduras.

 In April, Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez canceled his trip to Israel to participate in the torch-lighting ceremony for Israel’s 70th Independence Day ceremony amid calls for the invitation to be rescinded over what critics called “gross violations of human rights” in his country. 
 
 In March, Honduras and Paraguay announced that they were ready “in principle” to proceed in relocating their embassies soon to Jerusalem on the condition that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes an official visit to each of their countries. ||||| A night of passion ended in tragedy Tuesday when a Canadian couple died while having sex in a hotel hot tub during their daughter's destination wedding.

 They had traveled from Nova Scotia to Playa del Carmen in Mexico to celebrate the big day. 
 
 It's unclear if the wedding still went on Thursday. 
 
 The family was too devastated to think that far ahead after the tragedy, Charles Mackenzie's brother-in-law Douglas Hastings told the newspaper.

 "I know that they're more concerned about the remains and cremation and things like that. I don't really know about the wedding," he said. 
 
 A spokesman for the Playacar Palace hotel dismissed an earlier report that the couple had been electrocuted in the hot tub. 
 
 "The room was perfectly fine. All the equipment was working perfectly," he told the Press. 
 
 Their deaths are still under investigation.

– An unthinkable honeymoon accident: A newlywed Israeli man crashed into his wife while ziplining in Honduras, killing him and leaving his wife seriously injured, reports the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. "The girl stayed halfway on the cable and the guy came from behind and hit her up there," local fire chief Wilmer Guerrero is quoted as saying in the Spanish-language La Prensa. Egael Tishman, 24, and Shif Fanken, 27, were on a cruise that stopped in Roatan, and they decided to go for a zipline adventure over the treetops Thursday afternoon. Fanken got stuck about halfway through, and her husband soon slammed into her, the fire chief tells the Washington Post. Both were conscious at the hospital despite suffering multiple serious injuries, but Tishman eventually died, perhaps of a brain hemorrhage. His body was being flown back to Israel for burial. Fanken, meanwhile, has been airlifted to a hospital in Fort Lauderdale, reports the Forward.
