Pregnant woman shot in West Bank terror attack last week set to be released from hospital

A 30-year-old pregnant woman who was seriously wounded in a terror attack in the West Bank last week is recovering and expects to be released from hospital, according to Hebrew media reports.

“He looked at me and I looked back at him. I tried to slide down as far as possible in my seat so that the hit would be in the least terrible place — of course I was thinking of the fetus,” Adi Zohar says in an interview aired by Channel 12 from her hospital bed.

“I didn’t feel the shot, I guess from the stress, but in a few seconds I saw that my shirt was covered in blood,” she says.

Channel 12 reports that Zohar is in the fifth month of her pregnancy.

An Israeli man was killed and 10 others wounded in the attack near a checkpoint between the West Bank settlement city of Ma’ale Adumim  and Jerusalem on Thursday.
