Victim in suspected Haifa attack in serious condition — hospital

Renee Ghert-Zand is the health reporter and a feature writer for The Times of Israel.

Rambam Medical Center deputy director-general Dr. Avi Weissman says the victim of a suspected terror attack that took place about a block from the hospital is in serious condition.

He is sedated and intubated in the trauma center, suffering from injuries to his extremities. The victim, a young man, will undergo a series of surgeries.

Following the apparent attack, entrances and roads leading to the hospital were blocked off to non-rescue vehicles for a period, but are now being opened up.
