Asher arrived at the hospital during resuscitation and in critical condition and numerous teams from the trauma unit and the emergency medical unit as well as the pediatric ICU fought for his life for hours before he was declared dead. He will be buried next to his brother on Motzaei Shabbos.
Asher and Yaakov Yisrael’s father Avraham Paley is in moderate condition at the Hadassah Har Hatzofim hospital. The brothers’ 10-year-old brother Moshe who was lightly injured has been released home.
The other victim of the attack was Alter Shlomo Lederman (20) a young married avreich from the Pinsk-Karlin chasidim.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir announced at the scene of the attack that Israel needed to make a “Defensive Shield No. 2” operation, similar to the 2002 operation in Jenin to clear terrorist cells in the city.
However defense officials dismissed Ben’Gvir’s statement, saying that such decisions are taken in conjunction with the entire defense establishment and in the security cabinet.
Initial investigations revealed that the terrorist was a mentally deranged individual who was released from a psychiatric institution this week and whose situation had deteriorated. The defense official said that the terrorist lived in a rented apartment in the Issawiya neighborhood in East Jerusalem and therefore it is unclear whether there is a legal permit to seal of demolish his home.
The source added that Prime Minister Netanyahu does not see a reason to adopt collective punishment for East Jerusalem Arabs in response to the attack, especially as Israel is trying to calm tensions prior to the Ramadan month which occurs this year in Nissan, which would enable the defense establishment to focus on the Iranian threat.
The defense official added that “there are operational steps to be taken against a lone attacker but this must be done with balance. There is a large community in East Jerusalem which isn’t involved in attacks. We want people to benefit from freedom of worship during Ramadan and Pesach.”
Mentally ill? What a good excuse.
Lone terrorist? Well who instigated him to do this don’t think his therapist did.
They all hate us and their all up for no good.
Shut the electricity and water supply to all Arabs in jerusalem and close the entrances to their towns they should all take their cars and knives and kill each other.
And when there’s no one left let Jew’s move in there.
Horrible Horrible Horrible horror
Always remember that the NETUREI KARTA are on the side of the terrorists, praising them, and encouraging them in their efforts to make Israel 100% Judenrein = 100% free of Jews.
They may seem like a small problem, but they play a significant role in turning world-opinion against Israel.
Since hundreds of millions of people make no distinction between Israel and Jews, this means that they also play a significant role in turning world-opinion against ALL Jews.
When will good Jews wake up, and take serious actions against the Neturei Karta?
Have a simple question, if someone decides to bring into his home poisonous man eating snakes, and let’s them roam freely in his house.
Then one morning wakes up, to find his family dead, whom would we blame for the tragedy?. Of course we all know the answer, it’s not the snake but the criminally insane murderous idiot who let poisonous snakes roam freely in his house.
Israel, is the only country that has over two million two legged murderous Jew hating snakes roaming freely around the country looking for Jews to murder.
The real murderers of these pure holy children is non other than the criminal gangster government that let’s poisonous snakes roam freely in their country,
and that includes the so called religious Knesset members with their kippas and shtreimlech.
There is only one solution, to this tragic situation.
THEY ALL MUST GO,
As long as we have murderous Muslim Arab swines roaming the streets of our holy land, Jewish blood will be flowing.
Anything else is national suicide.
And one more thing, blaming HASHEM for terrorist attacks is HERESY.No this has nothing to do with HASHEM, and everything to do with SUICIDE.
If someone commits suicide, would anyone in his right mind blame HASHEM, of course not, we all have BECHIRAH free choice
same here, letting millions of murderous snakes roam freely in Eretz Yisroel is nothing else but NATIONAL SUICIDE
It is the government of Israel and it’s leaders who are mentally ill, for not doing what needs to be done
Mentally ill? Sounds like nytimes excuses. Arrest his ENTIRE family
The terrorists family will be given a monthly stipend funded by Biden sending the pali terror regime millions of dollars in contravention of US law.
“mentally ill”
all murderers are not normal and are mentally ill, if they would be normal they wouldn’t be murdering anyone. therefore no excuse
Paging sara rivka
Isael is weak country how many more will die?
This is going to keep happening if we keep on giving away land. The rebbe warned us!!
This is horrifically sad, but destroying homes over lunatics isn’t the answer. Eventually though the political
Climate will dictate when the next “war” will be.
“prior to the Ramadan month which occurs in Nissan…”
The Muslim calendar is purely lunar. Therefore, their Ramadan can occur at any point in the year, not specifically in our Nissan.
