Medic who responded to Eli terror shooting says he heard the gunfire from his home
Avraham Applebaum, a Magen David Adom medic who responded to the terror shooting near Eli earlier, says he heard the gunfire from his home in the West Bank settlement, and set out to the scene right away.
“I heard gunfire from my home. I knew there was an incident,” he tells Channel 12.
He says he “saw a victim inside the car and another laying on the ground,” and he and others started to treat them.
The victims sustained “critical injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene,” he says.
