A court in Petah Tikva has convicted Masaam Samara, a 39-year-old caregiver from Tayibe, of two counts of aggravated assault against a three-year-old toddler. Samara worked at the WIZO "Duvdevan" daycare center in Kfar Saba, caring for children aged two to three. The court ordered a pre-sentencing report to assess her suitability for community service as an alternative to imprisonment.
According to the indictment, in March 2024, Samara forcefully grabbed a toddler by his hair while he was in bed, pulling him up. She then grabbed him by the arms, pulled him forcefully, stood him up, and pushed him from behind, causing him to fall to the ground.
