Israel's Consul General in New York, Danny Dayan, visited Yossi Newman, his son, and daughter, in a hospital in New York, after they were seriously injured in a fire that broke out in their home in Brooklyn. The mother of the family and three of the children perished in the fire.
Dayan said in his Twitter account, "I spoke with the doctors and prayed with his brother for their complete recovery. Let's hope for the best''.
