One person was killed and another 18 were injured after a vehicle plowed into them on Monday in two separate locations in Raanana in central Israel.

A terrorist stabbed a woman while another terrorist stole a car and proceeded to carry out ramming attacks in several locations, Israel Police confirmed. The terrorist swapped vehicles three times after crashing, the police stated. The terrorists were Muhammad Zaidat, 44, and Ahmed Zaidat, 24, both from Hebron and were later arrested. 

Two people were slightly injured after being run over on Haroshet Street, where a 66-year-old man was also seriously stabbed. An additional fifteen people were injured to varying degrees, including a 34-year-old man and a 16-year-old boy in serious condition with head injuries, as a result of the ramming on Ahuza Street, the main street of the city.

Four children and teenagers wounded in the Ra’anana car ramming attacks have been brought to Schneider Children’s Medical Center in moderate condition and are undergoing evaluation in the emergency room.

Tania Kohar, deputy head of the Ra’aana branch of United Hatzalah, reported: “I arrived at the scenes of two incidents on Haroshet Street and Achuza Street in Ra’anana and together with a large number of United Hatzalah EMTs and paramedics we provided initial treatment to the injured, who were then transported to the hospital.”

MDA Medicycle EMT Eli Raymond recounted: “We arrived in large numbers at the scene, and saw several casualties lying in varying conditions. We immediately began a primary triage, including field treatments such as stopping the bleeding, immobilization, and drug therapy. We evacuated the casualties for further treatment in different hospitals.”
