Eli (48) and Natalie (45) Mizrahi are two of seven people murdered in theterrorist attack near the Neve Ya’akov Synagogue in Jerusalem on Friday evening as they helped injured people. They had married only two years ago.
Eli’s father, Shimon, said: “We were in the middle of the meal when we heard gunshots. My son came downstairs to help, his wife came downstairs following him. The terrorist shot them and the killed at close range. They came down to help the wounded and were killed.
A neighbor of Eli and Natalie added, “Eli yelled ‘call the police’ at me and collapsed.” “He then shot a person in his vehicle and then pointed the gun at me and I saw death, I took refuge in my home and he shot at my window. The family of the terrorist must be evicted . I believe that the terrorist received the support of the family. There will never be peace with them, period,” he added.
Five other people lost their lives in the deadliest attack that Israel has known for ten years and three people were injured, one of them seriously. Security forces are on high alert across the country, especially in major cities. 42 people in connection with the attack have been arrested.
