President Reuven Rivlin visited the victims of Friday's terror attack in Ichilov Hospital today (Sunday).
While at the hospital, President Rivlin joined the family of Ido Lazan, who is being treated for a stomach injury. Rivlin arrived only a few minutes after Lazan recovered consciousness. He also visited Dror Reicher, who received a head injury.
"These are difficult times for all Israeli citizens and I am here to listen and to be together with you. Together, alongside children in kindergartens and parents who woke up in fear this morning; alongside the wounded and the terrified families – all of us together," the President said as he left the hospital..
He added added, "We are in a situation where there are lots of pieces of the puzzles missing. However, we rely on the police and the Israeli Security Agency (ISA, also known as the Shabak or Shin Bet) who know how to do their jobs and how to bring this affair to a close. Tel Aviv needs to keep up the routine - terrorism cannot defeat us."
