Avraham Somechi, an 80-year-old man, has been confirmed as the second victim of the stabbing attack that occurred in Holon on Sunday.
Somechi was fatally attacked while waiting at a bus stop on Moshe Dayan Street. Despite the efforts of first responders and medical staff at Wolfson Medical Center, Somechi's condition worsened, and he was pronounced dead. His funeral took place later that evening at Holon’s cemetery.
Somechi is survived by his wife, two children, and five grandchildren.
The attack resulted in the deaths of Somechi and 66 year-old Rina Daniv, and left two others injured. Daniv’s husband, one of the injured, was transported to her funeral by ambulance.
