IDF investigating if car in Kibbutz Erez was hit by anti-tank missile, not rocket
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Israeli military is investigating if the car that was struck north of the Gaza Strip, critically wounding the driver, was hit by an anti-tank guided missile and not by a rocket as initially believed.
An army spokesperson says the IDF cannot yet say definitively what was fired at the vehicle, but is looking into the matter.
Medics say the driver, a man in his 60s, sustained a serious shrapnel wound to the leg and lost a lot of blood.
“We gave him life-saving treatment, put him in an intensive care ambulance and along the way were forced to give him CPR as we took him to the hospital in critical condition,” one of the medics says.
