Jewish Victim of Arab Mob Thanks Arab Nurse Who Saved Him


(Times of Israel) Nathan Jeffay - Fadi Kasem, 28, a nurse at the Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya, went to a riot scene in Acre two weeks ago and saw a Jewish man, Mor Janashvili, 29, lying on the ground after he had been attacked by a mob wielding stones, sticks and knives. Kasem administered first aid to the victim. He recalled, "I was scared he was going to die. There was lots of blood and a head injury." Janashvili told the Times of Israel on Tuesday, "I had lost consciousness when he got to me, but remember waking up and hearing him comforting me and caring for me." Just before he was discharged from the hospital, Janashvili told Kasem, "You saved my life," to which Kasem replied, "I did what had to be done." Janashvili concluded, "In a place where people weren't showing humanity, he showed such great humanity."
