President Reuven Rivlin speaks with Inbar Azrak, who was wounded in a Molotov cocktail attack in Jerusalem on Monday and assures her that Israel would “stop the terror.”
“I spoke now with Inbar, who is suffering in severe pain, who bravely survived an horrific terror attack when a Molotov Cocktail was thrown at her car yesterday evening,” Rivlin says in a statement. “Despite the difficulty of her injuries, she explained to me how her heart has been warmed by the outpouring of love and support she has received from the whole people, she told me of the dedicated and professional care she has received from the hospital staff, and of what she called the ‘beauty of the people of Israel.’
“I said to Inbar that we will stop the terror, and the terrorists, our enemies, who harmed her and the dear people who went to her aid. This is our duty,” he says.
