| Israeli doctor touted a hero on bombed London tube |
| 2005-07-12 |
An Israeli surgeon - on vacation with his family in London - sprang to action following last week's terror attacks and helped save victims' lives.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Dr. Benny Meilik, an emergency surgeon and consultant at the Tel Aviv Medical Center, had arrived in London the day before the attack with his wife and two children. They were looking forward to relaxing and getting away from the pressures of Meilik's job.
But on the first morning of his trip he found himself dragging victims free from the wreckage of the 8:51 a.m. Piccadilly Line eastbound train and working frantically to save their lives. |
