JERUSALEM - Former Israeli foreign minister David Levy, whose rise from manual labourer to the international stage inspired fellow Mizrahi Jews of Middle Eastern descent, died on Sunday aged 86.
As housing minister in the 1980s, he led projects to improve the infrastructure for poor Israelis. Appointed foreign minister in 1990, he was mocked by rivals for his poor English - though his French was fluent. He served three terms in that role.
