The Magen David Adom emergency service says 33 people were wounded in this morning’s suspected terror ramming at a bus stop north of Tel Aviv, with eight of them trapped under the truck when medics arrived on the scene.

“A truck hit dozens of people who had disembarked at a bus stop. Eight of the wounded were trapped under the truck and others were lying and walking near it,” a medic says.

The injured include six in serious condition, seven who were moderately wounded and 20 people who were lightly hurt when a truck drove into the bus stop near the Glilot Junction.

Many of the injured are senior citizens who had disembarked from a bus ahead of a visit to a nearby museum to mark the national memorial day for those killed in the October 7 massacre and subsequent war.
