Dan Bus Company driver Michael Yuger, who is viewed as a hero for his quick actions, thanks HKBH for having the opportunity to save lives.

After passenger David Papo informed Yuger of the suspicious package on the bus, the latter immediately halted the vehicle and compelled all 15 passengers to get off. Some did not want to but Yuger compelled them to leave, assisted by Papo. It was not too long after they got off the vehicle when the 5kg bomb detonated, blowing out every window in the vehicle.

Police report there can be no doubt the two are heroes and their quick and appropriate responses are credited with saving lives in this case. Yugel told the press he thanks Hashem for being a shaliach and having the opportunity to save the lives of others.
