The death of Yehuda Shoham occurred as a consequence of a 5 June 2001 stoning attack attributed to Palestinians on the civilian vehicle, near the Israeli settlement of Eli and Palestinian village of Isawiya in the West Bank, in which the five-month-old American-Israeli Yehuda Shoham was seated. Rocks crashed through the car's windscreen and crushed the infant's skull. Shoham died of severe brain damage on 11 July 2001.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yehuda Shoham // In Memory of the Victims of Palestinian Violence and Terrorism in Israel )〕 This stoning attack and the infant's death, six days later, made headlines in Israel and, according to B'tselem, sparked a settler attack on two Palestinian villages, in which a Palestinian youth was shot while Israeli soldiers watched (or even participated). Both incidents were part of a Second Intifada that started in September, 2000 and by 12 June 2001 had claimed the lives of 489 Palestinians and 109 Israelis. ==The attack== The incident occurred as Benny and Batsheva Shoham and their only child Yehuda approached Eli after paying a shiva call in Ra'anana.〔 Near Eli, Palestinians hiding at the roadside hurled rocks at the car which broke through the car's windscreen and crushed the infant's skull.〔 The father continued driving, worried about an ambush, and at a nearby intersection, the couple noticed their baby's head injuries.〔 Batsheva performed mouth to mouth resuscitation on Yehuda until the arrival of paramedics.〔 Yehuda was taken to an intensive care unit at the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem, where he lay unconscious and with severe head injuries. He was attached to a respirator for nearly a week before dying of severe brain damage on 11 July.〔〔〔 During his time in the hospital, Yehuda's parents gave him a second name, "Chaim," which means life, hoping that he would live. While in the hospital, Yehuda was visited by then Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Death of Yehuda Shoham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
