Dvir was hospitalized on August 23 with his father after an improvised explosive device detonated near the three as they hiked in the Danny Spring riverbed near the West Bank settlement of Dolev.
He suffered from shrapnel wounds in his stomach, and was rushed into urgent surgery. His condition stabilized after the surgery, and he has spent the past 10 days recuperating. His wounds still require follow-up and rehabilitation to fully heal, Hadassah says.
