Israel Police officials announced the completion of the investigation of the assault against doctors in a kupat cholim facility in Betar Illit on Shabbos, 21 Kislev. A doctor and a male nurse were assaulted by four residents of the chareidi city when they felt the medical team were not delivering satisfactory care in a timely fashion.
The State Prosecutor’s Office is expected to file four indictments against the suspects in the Jerusalem District Court on Tuesday, 1 Teves. The charges include aggravated assault leading to serious injury along with threats. In addition, one suspect will face charges for brandishing a knife.

Since the perpetrators were clearly not chareidi, why do you mention that the doctor and nurse “were assaulted by four residents of the chareidi city”?
That’s crazy. Those are not exactly typical Beitar residents, realize.
