B’chasdei Hashem doctors in Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Yerushalayim reported on Tuesday, 18 Marcheshvan that terror victim Rabbi Yehuda Glick is beginning to breathe on his own, without the assistance of a mechanical respirator.

During a Knesset plenum session on Tuesday, Speaker Yuli Edelstein interrupted to make the announcement in a shaky voice, visibly emotional over hearing the rabbi’s condition is improving. Edelstein announced that her received a phone call from Glick personally, telling him the good news.

Glick was shot at point-blank range by an Arab terrorist two weeks ago in an attempted assassination.

Edelstein told MKs “You are the first I am sharing this news with to share my joy. A short time ago I stepped down for a moment to speak with Yehuda Glick, who is breathing unassisted for two hours. He asked to speak with me and wanted to call me immediately…”

Rabbi Glick served as the spokesman for the Ministry of Absorption during Edelstein’s tenure as minister and they have remained friends since.

The tzibur is requested to be mispallel for Yehuda Yehoshua ben Rivka Ita Brenda bsoch kol cholei am yisrael.
