ReplyDeleteThe Jewish UNARMED and UNSUNG HEROES that NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT, who took on the cold blooded, callous and murderous terrorist UNARMED, trying to stop and disarm the gunman before being killed in the Bondi Chanukah Terrorist Attack!
ReplyDeleteAfter 22 Days in a Coma, Bondi Hero Wakes Up
"After 22 days in a coma, Gefen Biton, the most severely wounded victim of the Sydney terror attack and one of its selfless heroes, opened his eyes in what can only be described as a miracle. Gefen had escaped to safety, then turned around and ran back, with mesirus nefesh (self sacrifice), straight into the line of fire, to try to save lives."...
"His injuries were CATASTROPHIC".
"He ran to make contact with the terrorists.”...
"The weight of what had happened set in: Gefen had escaped to safety, THEN TURNED AROUND and RAN BACK, with mesirus nefesh, straight into the line of fire to try to save lives"....
“It was a moment of extreme courage,” one acquaintance said. “HE ONLY THOUGHT ABOUT THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM.”
The family later released a statement: “Gefen put his own life at risk with his selfless actions. Gefen – an unarmed Israeli civilian, living in peace in Australia – made a decision most of us couldn’t even think of. He ran into the face of danger like only a hero does, guided by the values on which he was educated and raised. A true hero that deserves recognition.”
Gefen’s condition was dire. He suffered devastating injuries to his intestines, pelvis, and hip. He was sedated, ventilated, and classified as the most critically wounded victim of the attack. Over the following weeks, he underwent more than ten complex surgeries to save his life".

After eight surgeries, Bondi Beach hero Gefen Biton is finally being flown home to Israel today.
ReplyDeleteDuring the Bondi Beach massacre, Gefen was shot three times while trying to stop a terrorist. He initially escaped—then turned back, running toward the danger to support Ahmed al-Ahmed as the attack unfolded.
He’s been fighting for his life for weeks. Still in serious condition—but strong enough to come home. A true hero.
Yesterday I read that the Aust Government had officially made him an Aussie citizen which means his medical expenses to date will be covered by the Government Medicare fund. Baruch Hashem.
