Two people were injured in Tel Aviv on Thursday by a falling tree branch.
A 23-year-old man was moderately injured by the tree branch, while another person was lightly injured.
Paramedics from the Magen David Adom ambulance service treated the two at the scene before taking them to the city’s Ichilov Hospital.
The incident took place on Shai Agnon Street.
It was not immediately clear what caused the branch to collapse, with weather conditions mild in the coastal city.
