Following a rocket strike which hit an olive grove near the Gil’am junction in northern Israel, Magen David Adom dispatched a large amount of medics to the scene including ambulances, Mobile Intensive Care Units, and Medicycles to provide medical assistance.

After performing resuscitation efforts, MDA paramedics pronounced a woman in her 60s and a man in his 30s dead. Additionally, MDA EMTs and paramedics treated and evacuated a man in his 70s in mild condition to Rambam Hospital.

“We were called to the olive grove and saw a man in his 30s lying on the ground, unconscious. While we were attempting resuscitation efforts while conducting further searches, we located another casualty, also in critical condition with multi-system injuries. We provided her with medical treatment and performed resuscitation,” said senior MDA EMTs Itai Mazor and Yishai Levy. “Unfortunately, we had to pronounce both of them dead.”
