A British yeshiva student, who was seriously injured in a car crash in Hungary this month, underwent intensive surgery on Tuesday.
A source close to the family said Yehuda Roittenbarg underwent surgery at the Royal London Hospital after he was injured in the car crash with friend Binyamin Cohen a fortnight ago.
The source, who wished to remain anonymous, said: “Binyamin is responding positively to treatments at the Royal London. He is expected to make a full recovery. Yehuda is recovering after the serious surgery procedure. We are continuing to pray for him to have a full recovery.”
The strictly Orthodox men, aged 19 and 20 from Stamford Hill in north London, were knocked unconscious when the black Ford they were driving crashed into a moving lorry . They were understood to have travelled to Hungary to pray at the tomb of acclaimed rabbi, Yeshaya Steiner of Kerestir.
