Reporter at The Times of Israel

The 82-year-old man seriously injured in yesterday’s Iranian ballistic missile attack underwent surgery at Rambam Health Care Campus, a hospital spokesperson says. He is currently sedated and ventilated, and remains in serious condition.

His wife, aged 78, is also hospitalized and in good condition.

Additionally, Rabin Medical Center says that a person injured in this morning’s Iranian ballistic missile attack in Petah Tikvah arrived at the hospital in moderate to serious condition.

The Health Ministry reports that in the past 24 hours, 163 injured people have been taken to hospitals as a result of the conflict with Iran and Hezbollah.

Among those treated in hospitals over the past day, one is in serious condition, four are in moderate condition, and 153 are in good condition. Five people have been treated for anxiety.

The ministry says that since the beginning of the war on February 28, 7,035 people have been admitted to hospitals, 130 of whom are currently hospitalized. The casualty figures include soldiers and civilians.

The ministry does not give a breakdown of the causes of the injuries. Some were indirect, such as people injured while trying to reach shelters, rather than as a direct result of missile fire.
