A patient seriously injured in a rocket attack in Safed has been transported by helicopter to the Trauma Unit at Rambam Medical Center in Haifa, the hospital says.
According to Solomon Zarka, the head of Safed’s Ziv Hospital where the patient, a man in his 30s, was initially brought, he was found to have been severely injured by shrapnel that penetrated his skull, necessitating transport to a hospital with a neurosurgery unit.
Zarka says no other patient has life-threatening injuries.
