This is a new immigrant who immigrated to Israel only about two months ago.
The injured man's mother told Israel Hayom that it all started the day before when she and her husband were walking towards the park and several boys threw an explosive in their direction. They picked up the remains of the explosive and the boys surrounded them both and threatened them. A few minutes later we left the place and even some of them followed him.
The boys vandalized facilities for fun.

"Today, my son came to the same kindergarten to practice on the facilities and began to see that boys were dismantling the facilities with tools," said the injured man's mother.
"He went to warn them and they ignored his comments and continued with theirs. At one point he took out his cell phone and started taking pictures of them and they came to him and beat him with an iron as well."
