Jerusalem, 27 November, 2022 (TPS) -- Tedsa Teshuma, a 50-year-old Ethiopian immigrant and father of six died on Saturday of injuries from Wednesday’s terror attack.

Teshuma, who moved to Israel 21 years ago, will be laid to rest in Jerusalem on Sunday afternoon.

An announcement by the Shaarei Zedek Medical Center said that “the trauma and intensive care teams of Shaarei Zedek fought for his life, but unfortunately his injury was very fatal. We share in the family’s deep sorrow and send our condolences. Tedsa’s family thanks the people of Israel for their support and requests that her privacy be respected and that she refrain from contacting family members.”

Teshuma was the second fatality from Wednesday’s twin bombings of bus stops at the entrance to Jerusalem. Also killed in the attack was Aryeh Shechopak, a 16-year-old Canadian-Israeli yeshiva student.
