Son of US Ambassador Leiter released from rehabilitation hospital - ‘Unconscious, but breathing independently’

Neria Leiter, the son of Israel’s Ambassador to the United States Yehiel Leiter, who was critically injured in a ramming attack over a month ago, has been discharged from Shaare Zedek Medical Center.

The hospital said Neria Leiter remains unconscious but is breathing on his own.

He is being transferred for further care within a neurological and traumatic brain injury rehabilitation program at Sheba Hospital.

The Leiter family expressed their gratitude to the medical teams at Shaare Zedek for their “dedicated and professional care, which went above and beyond.”

The family asked media to respect their privacy and requested continued prayers for Neria’s well-being.
