A 21-year-old man was killed overnight in a car crash in Nof HaGalil. In a separate two-vehicle collision in Rishon LeZion, four men were injured, two of them in serious condition.
A 21-year-old man was killed overnight when his vehicle collided with a utility pole on Maaleh Yitzhak Boulevard in Nof HaGalil. MDA emergency teams arriving at the scene found the driver trapped inside the car, unconscious, pulseless, and suffering from severe multi-system trauma. Paramedics performed immediate medical assessments, but due to the catastrophic severity of his injuries, they were forced to pronounce him dead at the scene.
MDA paramedic Omer Daif and emergency medical technicians Vered Basharat and Naftali Pazin detailed the severity of the operational conditions:
"This was a very severe scene. When we arrived, the man was trapped inside his vehicle unconscious and suffering from critical multi-system injuries. Medical tests confirmed his condition, leaving us no choice but to declare his death."
In a separate collision overnight, a two-vehicle crash on HaPalmach Street in Rishon LeZion left four men injured. Emergency responders treated the victims at the site before transporting them to regional medical centers via ambulances and mobile intensive care units.
Two of the injured were evacuated to Shamir-Assaf Harofeh Hospital, including a 42-year-old man in serious condition with head and limb injuries, alongside a 32-year-old man in moderate condition. Simultaneously, a 24-year-old man suffering from severe chest and abdominal trauma and a 30-year-old man in moderate condition were transferred to Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer. MDA medics Moshe Seket, Aharon Hess, and Avi Tomarkin noted that responders provided immediate life-support treatment before transferring the stabilized casualties to hospitals.
