Yahli Gur, a 17-year-old girl injured in a car ramming terror attack in northern Israel on Thursday, died of her wounds today.
The teenage girl was taken to the hospital in critical condition after the attacker steered his car into a crowd of people at a bus stop near Pardes Hanna, injuring 13 people.
“This evening we said goodbye with deep sorrow to the late Yahli Gur, 17, a resident of our community who was critically injured in the car ramming attack at Karkur junction six days ago,” announces Pardes Hanna-Karkur mayor Yoni Hakimi on Facebook.
A 60-year-old man and a 19-year-old woman were seriously injured with head injuries, while an 18-year-old was moderately injured, the Magen David Adom emergency service said on Thursday. Six others were lightly wounded.
The perpetrator, a 53-year-old Palestinian from Jenin, was shot and killed by police after fleeing the scene.
