Victims of Golders Green terror attack still hospitalized, in stable condition

The two people stabbed in an antisemitic terror attack yesterday in the heavily Jewish London neighborhood of Golders Green have been identified as Shloime Rand, 34, and Moshe Shine, 76.

Both victims remain in the hospital in stable condition, according to local media reports.

Rand’s sister tells the Daily Mail that Rand, who is also a US citizen, had left a synagogue shortly before he was stabbed. The knife wounds came within centimeters of hitting his vital organs, she says.

“It’s appalling, but also not surprising,” the sister says. “We get targeted by antisemitism all the time.”

Shine, who was said to pray every day at the synagogue, was described by friends as “a lovely man who minded his own business and never bothered anyone.”

The assailant, a 45-year-old Somalian national, also tried to stab police officers in the attack, and was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. The newly formed terror group Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya (HAYI) claimed responsibility for the attack.
