The delinquents known as ‘shababnikim’ have struck again, this time attacking bnei torah in Bnei Brak, on Friday night. An attack occurred last Shabbos morning at 1am, when a chassidish bochur attack attacked on Rabbi Akiva Street by a number of youths. A number of other bnei yeshiva who attempted to halt the violence were struck as well, some injured lightly by a knife waved by one of the attackers. The victims went to Mayanei HaYeshua Hospital for treatment.

Some of the bochrim, those not requiring medical attention ran to get help and B”H the attackers were taken into custody.
