Aaron Hershler

Aaron Hershler (Hebrew: אהרון הרשלר) (1850 – 5 January 1873) was a Hungarian-born Jew considered the first national Jewish martyr in the Jewish-Arab conflict. While attempting to intervene in a robbery at his family's home in Mishkenot Sha'ananim, the first Jewish neighborhood outside the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem, Hershler was shot 12 times, dying 5 days later.
