Israel National News (Arutz Sheva)

T

hree years have passed since the
murderous terrorist attack at
the Mercaz HaRav yeshivah in
Jerusalem, in which eight young men were
murdered as they studied Torah in the
Higher Yeshiva library.
Naftali Moses, whose son Avraham
David was among the victims, spoke to
Arutz Sheva's Hebrew-language news ser-
vice about the approaching yarzeit.
Naftali Moses said that after his son was
slain, he found a measure of comfort in
Jewish music. The Moses family has since
sponsored Jewish musical events in their
community, and is planning another on
the date of the murders in their hometown
of Efrat.
Music "helps us cope, as a family,"
Moses said. Making it a communal event

helps the family to give back to the com-
munity, which gave its support following
the tragedy, he said.
He spoke about his son, who was just 16
when slain. "In the last year of his life, he
was unusually dedicated to learning Torah.
He would get up to pray at sunrise every
morning:' Naftali continued.
Other victims were Segev Peniel Avihai,
15,Doron Meherete, 26, Roi Roth, 18,
Neria Cohen, 15, Yonatan Yitzchak Eldar,
16,Yochai Lifshitz, 18, and Yehonadav
Chaim Hirschfeld, 19. Several other young
men were wounded, some severely.
The Hamas terrorist who perpetrated
the attack was Alaa Abu Dhein of the
Jerusalem neighborhood of Jabel Mukaber.
He was shot and killed by heroic off-duty
IDF officers Yitzchak Dadon and David
Shapiro, who raced into the building to
stop the attack before police arrived. I I
