Three injured, one critically, in shooting in Ashdod
A 40-year-old woman was critically injured in a shooting in the southern Israel city of Ashdod.
A man in his late 30s was also moderately injured in the violent incident, and a 20-year-old woman was lightly wounded, Magen David Adom says.
“When we arrived at the scene, we saw the woman lying unconscious, not breathing and without a pulse,” a MDA paramedic says. “We immediately began performing CPR while taking her to the hospital.”
The police say they are searching for the suspected shooter and are treating the incident as “criminal,” indicating they aren’t suspecting a terror motive.
