Neria and Kevin were preparing their Shabbat dinner table at their home in Jerusalem when a yeshiva student decided to throw a stone through their window, narrowly missing Kevin’s head, in the first of two homophobic attacks against the couple within a matter of weeks. “It is terrifying that in the State of Israel things like this are happening,” wrote Neria on his Instagram. “Miraculously [the stone] passed over Kevin’s head and didn’t hit him.” “One of the students from the yeshiva across from us saw us and this is what he thought was the right way to respond, to kill gay men!” wrote Neria, adding that he called the police but they could not do much in this case.
