Shortly after a bomb exploded at a bus stop at the main entrance to Jerusalem on Wednesday morning at about 7 a.m., another blast occurred at Tzomet Ramot, another entrance to Jerusalem, at about 7:30 a.m.
As many YWN readers are aware, Tzomet Ramot is located in a Chareidi area, and on any given morning, is teeming with commuters, especially Bais Yaakov high school girls.
B’Chasdei Hashem, an incredible neis occurred as minutes before the bomb exploded, dozens of people, mainly Chareidim were waiting at the stop. But then several buses “happened” to show up and the bus stop quickly emptied.
All the people pictured below were at the bus stop minutes before the explosion:
Instead of dozens of people severely injured or worse, a bus sustained the brunt of the explosion, as can be seen in the video below:
Three people were lightly injured by shrapnel and additional people who witnessed the explosion suffered from shock.
The driver of the No. 67 Egged bus told media outlets: “I picked up passengers from the bus stop and the minute I began driving, we heard an explosion. People began screaming, some went into hysterics.”
The public is asked to daven for a critically injured yeshivah bochur – a refuah sheleimah l’ Elchanan ben Livnat, as well as for a seriously injured man of about 60 – Chaim Nochum ben Feiga Rivka b’toch shaar cholei Yisrael.

Even more massive נס גדול when every single arab finally permanently expelled & deported from Israel, which cannot happen soon enough.
Is it appropriate to say nes gadol when there was a boy killed and many others injured?
Ah Mein to 127
@147:
Not just yet. We need them to build the Temple. And after that to build all the new construction that’l be needed at that time.
If someone would take into his house poisonous man eating snakes, and let’s them roam around in his home freely.
And one nice morning wakes up and sees his whole family killed.
Whom would we blame,would it be the snakes or that criminally insane gangster who brought them in.
Of course we know the answer.
Israel has over two million murderous poisonous Jew hating two legged snakes roaming freely and murdering Jews day and night.
The murderous guilty party is none other than the Government itself,and that includes even the ones with shtreimlech and long payos.
These murderers bring in and enable these murderous snakes to roam around freely and murder Jews.
There is only one solution to this untenable situation.
THEY ALL MUST EXPELLED.
The Bais Yaakov girls, many of them are constantly saying tehillim, baking challah, taking care of their brothers and sisters, and honoring their parents etc. They have a sort of hidden power.
Say Tehillim in the Public Tehillim Group for the Victims of this horrible attack.

I wish the title would have read something more like “dozens of jews spared” instead of “chareidim”.
The current way clearly makes it sound like “chareidim” being attacked is more of a tragedy than another jew.
147:
Nothing justifies terror and murder of innocents as the savages did this morning. Period.
But stop it with this Zionist nonsense. The cause of all this is, of course, your idol, the Zionists. Until the Zionists invaded a century ago, there were no suicide attacks. Even the Mufti, no lover of Jews, told Rav Yosef Chaim that he had no problem with Jews immigrating to the holy land, but not if they would rule over the Arabs.
At the time the Zionists invaded, the chareidim begged the Zionists to go away and stop stirring up trouble but the Zionists didn’t and still don’t care, as their “State” is the most important thing in their idolatrous faith, above Jewish lives.
Hakatan,
Yep the Zionist idol pays for healthcare, monthly stipend checks, water, security, roads, and subsidizes food and transportation.
Pretty impressive for an idol
Can the Editor please not embarrass themselves and change the Headline ? how long before we can anticipate the headline reading ” NES GADOL Hashem saved 10 Chassidim or 10 Litvishe ” ?
Cowdoc.11.31 am
Well said, couldn’t have said it better
This Hakatan creature, is most probably a product of that insane asylum called Satmar chinuch, where they are brainwashed with a pathological hatred towards EretzYisroel and it’s almost seven million Jews
@HaKatan: you are a רשע, go move to Iran
ברוך שלא עשני נטורי קרתא
the Neturei Karta should be put in Cherem.
their rhetoric and soft stance against obvious & bloodthirsty שונאי ישראל like the Arabs endanger the lives of yidden everywhere
דין רודף
@Chaylev Halyah: the Arabs will not be building the Beis Hamikdash, we will – under the direct orders of Hashem and following the instructions of Moshiach. Another possibility is that the final Beis Hamikdash will fall from the sky fully intact as an open miracle for the world to see; it is a מחלוקת ראשונים. which of the two options it will be we don’t know yet.
@thehardtruth: Yes, dozens of chareidim being attacked or killed R”L is definitely more tragic than if the victims were other secular Israelis. Those who are Frum and keep the Torah of Hashem are objectively worth more ‘בעיני ה than those who do not.
@HaKatan grow up.
The Mufti visited Aushwitz and invited ym”sh to come to Palestine and open up shop there.
I’ll take my chances any day with “the Zionists” over the murderous Palestinians.
