niv a hero of israel

Niv Nehemiah was seriously injured in a stabbing attack in 2017 at and Israeli supermarket, named Shufersal in the small city of Yavne. A terrorist from the village of Yatta attacked Niv in the back and stabbed him 14 times in all parts of his body. Niv, an Israeli hero, fought the terrorist with bare hands with all his might to protect himself and to prevent the terrorist from harming other victims. When he was seriously injured and bleeding, Niv removed the knife from the terrorist's hands. The terrible footage from the supermarket's security cameras touched the heart of an entire country. During the past two years, Niv has been under surgery many times and rehabilitation treatments have become part of his everyday routine. He is in terrible pain and has difficulty speaking (after a stab in the neck hit his vocal cords). But as a true hero, Niv fought back, struggled and even went back to work. Niv is married and has five children. The family's financial situation worsened significantly as a direct result of the attack and Niv and his wife, Sigal, struggle with a significantly declining income. For a long time, Sigal was a mother and a father to the children. Niv is in desperate need of several medical treatments! The national HMO and Social Security put a limit on the number of treatments Niv can get which adds to the difficulties for additional treatments. Donations are recognized for tax purposes.
