PM visits Dawabsha family in hospital, vows to catch ‘murderers’

Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu visits the children’s intensive care unit at the Sheba Hospital in Tel Hashomer, where the four-year-old son of the Dawabsha family is being treated.

The boy is in critical condition. His 18-month-old brother Ali was killed when their home was set on fire, allegedly by Jewish terrorists. The parents were severely injured.

Upon leaving the premises, Netanyahu says: “I visited now a boy fighting for his life next to his parents who are hanging between life and death. The State of Israel will have its finest physicians try to restore the boy to good health and to save the parents.”

“It is difficult to stand next to the bed of such a boy when you know his young brother was murdered and you ask, ‘Why was this terrible deed done?’ Terrorism is terrorism is terrorism. We will catch the murderers and bring them to justice,” the prime minister says.
