Tragic Night in Samaria<\/strong>
\nLast week, Tzeela was shot and killed during a terrorist attack late Wednesday night near the community of Bruchin. She and her husband, Chananel, were on their way to the hospital’s maternity ward in anticipation of the birth of their fourth child. Chananel sustained minor injuries. Their baby was delivered via emergency C-section in critical condition.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, Schneider Hospital reported a slight improvement in the newborn\u2019s medical situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
