The attack occurred outside the Young Diplomats Reception for young Jewish professionals, hosted by the American Jewish Committee. Two staffers, Yaron Lischinsky, 30, a German-Israeli dual citizen and a devout evangelical Christian who had immigrated to Israel at the age of 16 and served in the Israel Defense Forces, and Sarah Milgrim, 26, were shot at close range. Lischinsky had just bought an engagement ring to propose to Milgrim when they got back to Jerusalem.
