MDA paramedic Fadi Dekidek, who treated yesterday (Friday) at the scene of the deadly attack in the Neve Ya'akov neighborhood in Jerusalem and also treated the injured of the attack today (Saturday) in the city of David in the capital, told "Israel Hayom" about the two attacks that took place day after day through his eyes.
"It is very difficult. I have dealt with many terrorist incidents, but I have never had an incident of the magnitude of the attack in Neve Ya'akov. This is one of the biggest attacks we have experienced in recent years. There were terrible sights. I saw the first dead person and then I discovered another dead person and another dead person in a long scene. I have not come across this before. It was a complex and difficult scene in terms of our treatment. It is important for us to engage only in saving lives while maintaining our safety. It was important to treat the wounded and scan the area and also send teams to treat the victims of anxiety."

Dakidek, an MDA paramedic for the past 20 years, who lives in the Beit Hanina neighborhood, close to the scene of the attack in Neve Ya'akov, described his struggle: "Time will take its course.
At MDA, we talk and don't leave anything in the stomach.
The attack yesterday in Neve Ya'akov will accompany me for a long time.
It is impossible to describe the sights that were there, but at least we managed to save some of the injured and that is what is encouraging.
In the attack in the city of David, one of the wounded is one of our volunteers.
I took care of him and talked to him.
It's a difficult weekend, but I will continue saving lives.'
