Wounded congregant returns to Har Nof synagogue

A congregant hurt in Tuesday’s attack returns to the scene and attends the morning prayer service at the Bnei Torah synagogue in Har Nof, Ynet reports.

“I was in the synagogue and then we heard the shooting,” says Yitzhak, a doctor at Shaare Zedek hospital. “I didn’t know what happened. I saw terrorists enter the synagogue. They chased me with an ax and I didn’t even see that we were wounded.”

The son of another injured congregant also arrives at the scene on Wednesday morning.

“His phylacteries are missing, his prayer shawl is missing, and I came to find them,” Yoseph Moualmi says. “We passed by here in the morning on the way to the hospital. My father’s condition is improving, thanks to the prayers.”
