A Miracle in the Holy Land

Maybe you saw it, maybe you didn’t scroll to the Kiddush dedication this week and you’ll see why Bob and Susan Warby chose to honor Yossi Antopolsky.

Yossi is Adina Lessoff’s brother. Last week in Gush Etzion, two PA police officers turned their guns on Israeli civilians in a deadly terror attack.

Yossi, a Chabadnik and head of security in his town, usually doesn’t do the shopping but last week, he volunteered. (Husbands, take notes 😉).

As he left the store, he heard gunshots. His weapon was ready. He spotted two men with guns, asked them where the terrorists were and they opened fire.

They were the terrorists.

Yossi took cover, regrouped, and like every Israeli who knows security didn’t wait. He moved fast, and with Hashem’s help, took both terrorists down.

A miracle:

• That he went shopping.

• That the bullets missed.

• That he had the courage and clarity to stop the attack.

No personal photo for security reasons but this story had to be shared.

The crime scene last week.
