Major Accident on Highway 6 Injures 18, Causes Severe Traffic
A significant traffic accident involving eight vehicles occurred on Highway 6 northbound between the Iron and Ein Tut interchanges on Tuesday morning. Emergency services responded to the scene, with MDA paramedics treating and evacuating 18 individuals who sustained light injuries. Ten of the injured were transported to Hillel Yaffe Medical Center, while the remaining eight were treated at the scene.
The accident initially led to the complete closure of the northbound lanes of Highway 6 to allow for rescue and investigation efforts. Subsequently, two of the three lanes were reopened by police.
Despite the reopening of some lanes, authorities reported that heavy traffic congestion persisted in the area. Traffic police and accident investigators were present at the scene to manage the situation and facilitate the ongoing investigation. Drivers were advised to exercise patience, follow police instructions, and stay updated on traffic arrangements.
