Neria Leiter, Son of Israeli Envoy to US, Discharged From Hospital, Transferred to Rehab Center
- On Wednesday, Neriya Leiter, son of Israeli Ambassador to the United States Yechiel Leiter, was discharged from Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem and transferred to a neurological rehabilitation facility for treatment of a traumatic brain injury.
- Leiter, an Israel Defense Forces reservist, was critically injured in September during a terrorist car-ramming attack at the Bell checkpoint on Route 443 near Maccabim, where security personnel shot the attacker dead.
- During his hospitalization, Leiter underwent multiple neurosurgical and orthopedic procedures; although he remains unconscious, medical teams report he is breathing on his own after his condition stabilized in intensive care.
- The Leiter thanked the medical teams at Shaare Zedek for their "dedicated and professional care, which went above and beyond," requesting privacy and asking the public to continue praying for his recovery.
- Nearly seven weeks after the attack, this transfer to specialized rehabilitation marks a significant stage in his recovery, as medical professionals continue to monitor his condition while he focuses on recovery from severe head injuries.
