Two young chareidi girls, ages 4 and 5 were struck by a bus on Rabbi Elazar Street while heading home in Beit Shemesh Bet on Tuesday afternoon. They were crossing the street when they were struck by the bus that was passing the area. They were transported to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem, with United Hatzolah listing their conditions as light-to-moderate.

you have to ask are their parents part of the protest on the other girl’s school?
A four and a five year old are way too young to cross any street by themselves. All over Israel there are signs up that little children should not cross the street alone. Can you imagine letting your four or five year old cross 16th Avenue in Brooklyn alone? Or Avenue J in Flatbush? There are parents out there who are so irresponsible that they allow their little babies to cross busy streets where cars fly in and out. I know the street where these kids were hit and this is a major busy street in Bet Shemesh. I hope that we can get the names for Tehillim for these sweet girls and that Hashem has rachmanus on them.
Destro,
Why would you have to ask that? It is completely and totally unrelated to this story.
The real question that must be asked is, what possessed you to make such an assumption that such a question must be asked?
names for tehilim?
