Yehuda Arad, United Hatzalah first responder, who arrived while the shooting incident was still active, recalled:

“We arrived while the incident was still active. We waited until we were permitted by security to safely reach the wounded man. We found a man in his 30s inside his vehicle suffering from gunshot wounds. We immediately began providing emergency medical treatment and controlling the bleeding.”

Following initial treatment at the scene, the patient was evacuated in critical condition to Beilinson Hospital.

United Hatzalah teams remain prepared to provide additional medical assistance as required.
