Glick’s condition improves; called Knesset Speaker Edelstein

Meanwhile, Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein halted the afternoon plenum to announce that he had received a phone call from his friend Glick.

“You’re the first people with whom I want to share my joy,” Edelstein said. “A moment ago, I stepped down in order to speak with Yehuda Glick, who has been breathing unassisted for two hours.

“In Glick’s usual style, he said, ‘I know that you have struggled for the right to speak. For a few days, I struggled for the right to breathe. Now I’m breathing on my own and I wanted to share that with you.'”

Glick served as spokesperson for the Absorption Ministry during Edelstein’s term as minister, and the two remained friendly. Edelstein thanked well-wishers and hospital staff.
