An indictment was filed Saturday against Yuval Bibi, a Petah Tikva resident, for allegedly attacking his 76-year-old mother during an argument and disconnecting her from a ventilator she requires 24/7, according to Israel Hayom. Bibi is also accused of telling her, 'I'm not surprised that children kill their mothers.'
The indictment, reported by Israel Hayom, alleges that Bibi broke his mother's oxygen machine and choked her during an argument, then disconnected her from the ventilator. The case adds to a series of reported violent incidents against elderly parents in Israel, as The Zioneer has documented in recent weeks. The incident remains under investigation; Bibi has not yet entered a plea.
