The infant son of\u00a0Tzeela Gez<\/a>, an Israeli mother of three who was fatally shot in a terrorist attack in the West Bank while on her way to give birth, died Thursday morning after two weeks in intensive care.<\/span><\/p>\n

On May 15, Gez and her husband, Hananel, were on their way to the hospital to deliver their baby when a Palestinian terrorist opened fire on Israeli vehicles, critically wounding the pregnant mother and injuring her husband.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the attack, the 30-year-old woman was quickly transported to Petah Tikva\u2019s Rabin Medical Center in critical condition. Despite doctors\u2019 efforts to save her, she was pronounced dead the next morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the hospital, Gez\u2019s husband, who was driving the car, sustained minor injuries after his condition was initially reported as serious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Doctors managed to deliver the baby, Ravid Chaim \u2014 a name Tzeela had chosen before the attack \u2014 via emergency C-section, but he had already suffered severe oxygen deprivation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite intensive medical care, his condition remained critical, and he never regained full consciousness. After fighting for his life for more than two weeks, Ravid was pronounced dead Thursday morning at Schneider Children\u2019s Medical Center. He was buried on Thursday evening next to his mother at Jerusalem\u2019s Har HaMenuchot Cemetery.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last week, Hananel described his son\u2019s condition as being \u201cbetween life and death\u201d in an interview with\u00a0Israel Hayom<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shortly after the attack, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced an intensive search for the terrorist who fired on multiple vehicles, with Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir vowing to bring the perpetrators to justice.<\/span><\/p>\n

About a week after Tzeela was murdered,\u00a0the IDF confirmed that it had eliminated the killer<\/a>, Nael Samara, during a counter-terrorism operation near the Jewish community of Bruchin in the northern West Bank.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a post on X, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar shared the tragic news of Ravid\u2019s death, while criticizing the international community for ignoring the terror attacks against Israeli settlers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJews living in Judea and Samaria [the West Bank] are the most attacked population in the world by terrorism. Despite this, too many in the international community prefer to speak about \u2018settler violence,\u2019 instead of the terror against settlers,\u201d the top Israeli diplomat said.<\/span><\/p>\n
