Three people were killed and three others injured in a car accident near the West Bank settlement outpost of Givat Asaf, medics and rescue workers say.

Magen David Adom medics say three men in their 20s were declared dead at the scene. A 16-year-old was in a serious condition and two others, a man in his 30s and a 15-year-old, were moderately hurt. They were taken to hospitals in Jerusalem.

Fire and Rescue Service personnel were called in to help extricate three of the occupants who were trapped in the vehicle after it crashed through a safety barrier on Route 60. They managed to extricate the 16-year-old in serious condition, but the other two were already dead.

The cause of the single-vehicle crash is not immediately clear.
