Ichilov hospital in Tel Aviv says four of the five victims of the Tel Aviv ramming attack that were brought to the hospital were tourists, clarifying an earlier claim that all five held foreign citizenship.
According to the hospital, three of the tourists are British and one is Italian, the same national origin as the sole fatality.
Three are listed in moderate condition, one is listed in light condition and another person was treated for shock trauma. Some of the patients were set to undergo surgery, but none were in life-threatening danger.
There is no immediate comment from London, which earlier in the day expressed condolences after two dual national Israeli-British sisters were killed in a West Bank terror attack and their mother, also a dual national, was critically injured.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
