Yehuda Hildesheim, a volunteer with the Hatzalah emergency response organization describes the scene of the underworld gang hit in Tel Aviv where a car exploded and burst into flames injuring five.
He says that when he arrived at the site, he found two people with serious injuries and burns resulting from the force of the explosion in their car. They received initial treatment on site.
He adds that a man and a woman who happened to be passing by at the time of the blast were treated for light injuries.
Effi Levev, deputy director of the Tel Aviv District Magen David Adom ambulance service, and senior ambulance paramedic Danny Ben Aroush, says two men were lying seriously hurt outside of the car when they arrived, one of them unconscious, and nearby was a third man, aged around 30, who suffered injuries from the force of the explosion.
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.
