  • The attack occurred when the victim was on his way to help his father at a local supermarket.

A 21-year-old man, identified only as L., was brutally attacked with knives by a group of youths in the central commercial area of Ramla's Neot Shamir neighborhood on Sunday afternoon. L. had gone out to help his father with deliveries at the local supermarket when he was surrounded by the attackers, whom he did not know. He recounted being called over, then subjected to a violent assault including kicks to the head, leaving him in significant pain and barely able to move. The incident was captured on security cameras, and footage of the attack quickly circulated on social media.

L.'s mother, Yarden, discovered the attack through messages on a neighborhood WhatsApp group. She described the horrifying experience of recognizing her son in the blurry footage and the immediate panic and fear that followed. Yarden expressed deep distress and a sense of insecurity in the neighborhood, criticizing the attackers and their families for their apparent lack of remorse, even during court proceedings for extended detention. She stated that the attackers acted like "terrorists" and should be imprisoned for life due to their danger to the public.

During a court hearing for the suspects in Rishon LeZion, Yarden confronted the families of the accused, recounting an exchange where a sister of one suspect taunted her. She vowed to take matters into her own hands if justice is not served, expressing shame for the parents of the youths involved. Police in Ramla have arrested 11 suspects in connection with the assault. Six were released under restrictive conditions, while the detention of the remaining five has been extended.
