The Shaarei Zedek Medical Centre reported on Thursday morning that it is treating three patients, including an Ethiopian immigrant who sustained a serious head injury. The family has asked the public to pray for Tedsa ben Mada.
The other two wounded are conscious and in stable condition, hospitalised in the pediatric and adult intensive care units.
Of the 24 victims treated at the Hadassah organisation’s two hospitals, most suffered shrapnel injuries from nails packed into the bombs and have been released.
However, two patients remain at the Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Center, a hospital spokesperson said.
One is 20 years old and in moderate condition after being operated on. The other patient is a 52-year-old man hit in the head by shrapnel and is in minor condition in the neurosurgery department.
