Dr. Alon Schwartz, senior surgeon at the Shaare Zedek Medical Center trauma unit, said on Sunday afternoon that Shira Ish-Ran, who was seriously wounded in the attack at the Ofra Junction last week, faces a long recovery but it should be successful.
He explained "She has a major injury to the lower limb. A lot of physiotherapy is needed. Many operations are expected. The rehabilitation process will be long, but she is very positive and very encouraging emotionally, very strong. I expect the recovery to be successful and she will be restored to full health."
