Baby is born on birthday of sister who died after stone-throwing terror attack

Adva Bitton — whose daughter Adele sustained a severe head injury in a terror attack in 2013 and died two years later from complications of pneumonia — gives birth to a baby girl, on the birthday of her late daughter.

“Just as we live with our loss 24/7, we are choosing life and continue to bring life into the world,” Adva Bitton tells Channel 12.

The baby is the seventh child born to the Bitton family.

Adele Bitton suffered a traumatic brain injury in March 2013 when Palestinians threw rocks at a car driven by her mother, causing her to lose control and crash into a truck on Route 5 near the West Bank settlement of Ariel. She died in 2015 of a lung infection stemming from a neurological condition related to the injuries she suffered in the attack, which left her largely unresponsive for the previous two years, hospital officials said.
