The child critically injured in a motor vehicle accident near the intersection of Routes 443 and 444 on 24 Iyar has been fighting for his life since. About a week later, the Emanuel family called for achdus and tefilos to assist doctors in saving their son.
On Wednesday morning, 9 Sivan, Matanel succumbed to his massive injuries.
Zaka released the following statement:
“The Zaka family joins the family in its aveilus over the petira of Moshe Matanel, a son of volunteer Rav Yaakov Michael Emanuel of the Holon team. He has been fighting for his life over the past two weeks since the accident at Gamzu Junction. בעל הרחמים ינחמכם ויתן מרפא למכתכם”.
The levaya began at 4:00PM in Yahud.
