A 21-year-old Yeshiva Bochur was stabbed by an Arab terrorist a few minutes ago in Jerusalem at Sha’ar Shechem. Magen David Adom and United Hatzalah were on the scene treating the victim – who is reportedly in serious but stable condition. He was rushed by MDA to Shaarei Tzedek Hospital, where a trauma team was awaiting his arrival.
The attacker fled the scene immediately after the incident, which happened at 7:15PM on Thursday evening. A large police force is combing the area in search of the suspect.

B”h he’s in stable condition, he was stabbed in the lungs with a screw driver & air went into his lungs. Please daven for Shaul Yehoshua ben Freida Malkah
He’s an American Bucher learning in Israel & was on the way back to Yeshiva after completing the complete Tehilim.
Always sent a shiver down my back seeing bochurim walking that way at all times, only a few metres away from throngs of bloodthirsty arabs. Shomer Pesoyim HaShem. But we have to to take greater care not to stick our necks in the lions mouth.
What on earth was a yeshiva bochur doing in Shaar Shechem??
It’s like walking in the zoo with the animals roaming around not in cages, (where animals like arabs belong!)
He was stabbed thru the back with a screw-driver. It bore a hole thru his coat & clothing & B”H it missed the lungs by millimeters. The Bachur Was on the way back from the koisel after completing the whole tehilim which he went in honor of his 21st birthday today.
B”H he is recuperating from his wounds.
