An Israeli wounded in the Feb. 25 Hamas suicide bombing of a commuter bus in Jerusalem has died of his wounds.
Yitzhak Ira Weinstein, 54, was born in New York and immigrated to Israel in 1979.
He died Saturday at Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem, never having regained consciousness after the suicide attack.
Weinstein, who was buried Sunday, had been on his way to his job at a supermarket when the bomb went off aboard the No. 18 bus, the same line targeted in another Hamas attack a week later.
His death brought to 59 the number of innocent people killed in four suicide bombings between Feb. 25 and March 4.
