50-year-old man seriously injured in light plane crash in north

A 50-year-old man was seriously injured when his light aircraft crashed near Megiddo in northern Israel a short while ago, Magen David Adom says.

Paramedics arrived at the scene of the crash to find the man unconscious and suffering from multi-system injuries, they say, adding that the plane was flipped upside down.

“We gave him life-saving medical treatment, sedated and intubated him and evacuated in an intensive care vehicle to the hospital,” a paramedic says.

The man’s condition is unstable, the statement adds.
