First the gunmen fired through the door, seriously wounding both Hadar's father, Avida, and her 15-year-old brother, Carmel. Eventually, the militants would rupture the reinforced window with explosives and shoot her mother, Dana, through the gap. That began with a wardrobe being jammed against the other side of their safe room door and set alight. "They also used tires. But we were in survival mode and she was, in all honesty, a superstar," her father said.

It’s the first part of the multi-pronged judicial overhaul plan to get to a final vote in the Knesset, and could be voted into law in on Monday evening. The reasonableness bill, backed by Netanyahyu’s coalition government, would strip the Supreme Court of the power to declare government decisions unreasonable. Other elements of the judicial overhaul would give the coalition government more control of the appointment of judges, and would remove independent legal advisors from government ministries. Those bills have not advanced as far in the legislative process at the reasonableness bill. Halevi’s letter comes after more than 1,000 Israel Air Force reserve officers vowed to stop volunteering if the judicial overhaul bill passes.

☆ Israelul este în şoc: Un fost militar, care suferea de stres post-traumatic, şi-a dat foc în public

Un val de emoţie a cuprins marţi Israelul după ce un fost soldat suferind de stres post-traumatic şi-a dat foc cu o zi în urmă în faţa serviciului de asistenţă pentru soldaţii răniţi, caz care a avut ecou până la vârful conducerii statului israelian, relatează France Presse.Itzik Saidian (26 de ani) s-a deplasat până la serviciul de asistenţă pentru soldaţii răniţi, în apropiere de Tel Aviv, s-a stropit cu un lichid inflamabil şi şi-a dat foc pe fondul unui 'considerabil stres psihologic', a indicat armata într-un comunicat.Cu arsuri grave, el a fost transportat la serviciul de terapie intensivă de la spitalul Tel Hashomer, în apropiere de Tel Aviv, şi se afla marţi într-o 'stare critică' - potrivit unor surse spitaliceşti, suferind 'arsuri profunde pe tot corpul'.Tânărului îi fusese recunoscută o invaliditate permanentă parţială din motive de stres post-traumatic după participarea la războiul din 2014 împotriva mişcării islamiste Hamas, în Fâşia Gaza.Cazul şocant, care a intervenit în ajunul comemorării anuale în Israel a soldaţilor căzuţi în lupte şi a victimelor terorismului, a provocat o polemică privind sistemul de asistenţă pentru soldaţii răniţi sau pentru cei suferinzi de traume psihologice, considerat adeseori ineficient şi anchilozat de birocraţie. 'A văzut lucruri oribile şi nimeni nu s-a ocupat de el', a spus fratele său, Avi Saidian, printre lacrimi, asaltat de jurnalişti marţi la spitalul unde este internat fostul soldat.Premierul Benjamin Netanyahu s-a declarat 'extrem de şocat' de incident şi 'hotărât să întreprindă o reformă totală' a modului în care Israelul îşi tratează foştii soldaţi 'cu dizabilităţi şi răniţi'.Ministrul apărării, Benny Gantz, a anunţat deschiderea unei 'anchete aprofundate pentru a explica motivele acestui eveniment tragic'. De asemenea, Ministerul Apărării s-a angajat să lucreze 'la nivelul întregului sistem pentru a îmbunătăţi substanţial tratamentul soldaţilor (suferind de tulburări de stres post-traumatic)'.Serviciul militar este obligatoriu în Israel pentru tinerii de 18 ani, doi ani pentru femei şi doi ani şi şase luni pentru bărbaţi, notează Agerpres.ro.
