Ultra-Orthodox rioters clash with police in Jerusalem, December 15, 2022. (Israel Police)
Mirel Dzalovsky, a 40-year-old mother of 10, who was seriously wounded earlier this month after ultra-Orthodox protesters set ablaze and shoved a dumpster that hit her, has regained consciousness.
The Shaare Zedek Medical Center says Dzalovsky is awake and communicating, but remains in a serious condition on a ventilator.
Earlier today, police announced the arrest of a second suspect in the December 15 incident.
The demonstration erupted in response to the arrest of a man suspected of torching a cellphone store several months ago. Cellphone stores are sometimes targeted by religious extremists for not complying with “kosher rules” restricting the devices.
