Five-month-old Yehuda Chaim Shoham, who was hit by an Arab-thrown rock six days ago, died of his wounds today in the Hadassah Ein Karem hospital in Jerusalem. His funeral will depart at 7 PM tonight from the plaza outside the Prime Minister\'s Bureau in Jerusalem to the cemetery in Shilo. The bereaved parents, married for three years, have no other children. Buses will be provided to transport mourners from Jerusalem to Shilo.
Binyamin Regional Council head Pinchas Wallerstein says that residents of Yesha will not go \"back to routine\" following the murder of the baby from Shilo. Wallerstein, who arrived at the Knesset to take part in a meeting between Yesha Council members and Likud MKs, said that Ariel Sharon is not taking even the \"necessary minimal\" steps to defend the Yesha residents. He said, however, that the Council would not initiate, at this point, a campaign to topple the government. Likud MK Michael Eitan said that his party colleagues must pressure Sharon more heavily to improve the currently intolerable security situation.
