RAMAT GAN, Israel (AP) — When Ben Binyamin was left for dead, his right leg blown off during the Hamas attack on the Tribe of Nova music festival, the Israeli professional soccer player thought he would never again play the game he loved.
“When I woke up,” the 29-year-old said, “I felt I was going to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair.”
Then Binyamin learned about a chance to be “normal” again: Israel’s national amputee soccer team.
