Neria Leiter, son of Israeli envoy to US, discharged from hospital, transferred to rehab center
Neria Leiter was seriously wounded during a car-ramming terrorist attack at the Bell checkpoint on Route 443 in September.
Neria Leiter, the son of Israel's Ambassador to the United States, has been discharged from Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem and moved to a neurological rehabilitation facility on Wednesday. The 18-year-old sustained severe injuries during a terrorist attack in September at the Bell checkpoint on Route 443. While he is now breathing independently, he remains in a coma.
Throughout his hospital stay, Neria underwent multiple surgical and orthopedic treatments. After weeks of grave peril, his condition stabilized. Neria's family expressed gratitude to the medical staff at Shaare Zedek for their exceptional care, requesting privacy and acknowledgment of the arduous road to recovery ahead. His cousin, Yehuda Leiter, shared their feelings of relief at his discharge but acknowledged the long and challenging path to full recovery.
Tragically, in 2023, another son of Yechiel Leiter, Major Moshe Yedidya, was killed in Gaza while serving as a company commander in the 551st Brigade's 697th Battalion.
