The condition of a senior police commando seriously wounded in a gunbattle with members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group yesterday has improved, the Rambam Medical Center in Haifa says.

The hospital says Chief Superintendent S. is communicating with his family and able to breathe on his own, while still making use of a ventilator.

“The medical staff is optimistic about his condition, with hopes to release him from intensive care in the coming days,” Rambam says in a statement.
