A United Hatzalah of Israel volunteer who was at the scene of the deadly car-ramming targeting Israeli citizens in Jerusalem on Friday delivered a baby boy a few blocks away from the Palestinian terrorist attack where two young brothers were murdered.

Paramedic Ariel Schusheim, 56, assisted at the scene of the terror attack that took place at a bus stop near the Ramot neighborhood of east Jerusalem. He was leaving the scene with United Hatzalah’s ambulance when he received a call about a woman nearby who was in advanced stages of giving birth, United Hatzalah told The Algemeiner. He rushed to the nearby location to help the pregnant woman and on their way to the hospital he successfully delivered a healthy baby boy in the ambulance.

“After such a devastating terror attack it is so amazing to see something as beautiful as a baby being born,” Schusheim told The Algemeiner.

It was later revealed that Yaakov Yisrael Fali, 6, and his brother Asher Menachem Fali, 8, were killed in Friday’s car-ramming terrorist attack. Alter Shlomo Lederman, a 20-year-old yeshiva student and newlywed, also died after being taken to Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem in critical condition. Two men in their 20s were reportedly moderately wounded, another civilian injured in the attack, an Israeli man in his 40s, was in moderate condition and taken to the trauma unit at Hadassah Har HaScopus, and a 10-year-old boy was also injured, medical officials said.

The terrorist was identified as 30-year-old Hussein Qaraqa, an Israeli citizen and resident of the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Issawiya. He was shot dead by a police officer who was at the scene.

Update: The article was revised on Feb. 13 to include updated information about the United Hatzalah paramedic and victims of the attack. An earlier version of this article, relying on mistaken information from a source, incorrectly reported that Schusheim worked on resuscitating one of the victims of the Jerusalem attack.
