An Israeli driver was targeted in a shooting attack on Thursday evening, December 3. Rabbi Itay Halevi was driving out of the town of Psagot, near Jerusalem when he came under automatic fire by unknown assailants. The rabbi was unharmed in the terror incident, while the suspected terrorists fled the scene, prompting a manhunt by IDF soldiers in the region for suspects.

“I was leaving Psagot to go back home to Migron. Right outside Psagot, there’s a sharp bend in the road, and immediately after the bend they opened fire on my car from the right side,” Rabbi Halevi told Tazpit Press Service.

“It was probably terrorists who were laying in ambush very close to the road, only a few meters away,” commented Halevi.

IDF forces immediately arrived on the scene after the shooting and discovered over 20 bullet casings on the side of the road, corroborating the rabbi’s statement that the shooters were extremely close.

Halevi fled to a nearby gas station waiting for the soldiers to arrive, and was discovered by the security forces to be miraculously unharmed. More than ten entry bullet holes however, were found in Rabbi Halevi’s car, while several more exit bullet holes were discovered on the driver’s side.

“More than ten bullets actually penetrated my car passing between me and the front windshield, meaning the bullets entered the car from the right window and some exited from the left side close to the driver’s seat, but I left without even a scratch,” Halevi recounted to TPS.

“It ended in a miracle; I sped out of the danger zone as fast as I could while calling the security services on my phone even before stopping.”

“I am thankful to God for this miracle and I am thankful to the IDF and police for doing their job, ” concluded Rabbi Halevi.
