Israeli Bedouin Physician Was Attacked by Hamas Terrorists


(Jerusalem Post) Judy Siegel-Itzkovich - Dr. Tarek Abu Arar, a Bedouin physician at Ashkelon's Barzilai Medical Center, was accosted by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7. On his way to the hospital, he saw a man lying in the road and thought at first that he had been involved in a car accident and rushed to help him. The man, who was a terrorist, shot him in the chest, but his life was saved by the United Hatzalah protective ceramic vest he was wearing. Then 12 more terrorists came out from the bushes. They beat him and used him as a human shield. "They shot for an hour and a half at every car that passed. They murdered so many people - men, women, children - everyone. I was a doctor but I couldn't help them. Finally, Israeli special forces arrived and rescued me."
