A light aircraft crashed on Friday morning near the town of Kafr Qara in the Wadi Ara region, on Route 65. The incident resulted in one fatality and one serious injury. Emergency services from Magen David Adom (MDA) reported that the injured individual, a 34-year-old man, was transported to Rambam Hospital in serious condition, sedated and on a ventilator. MDA paramedics arrived at the scene and provided initial treatment to the man, who suffered burns on his limbs, before he was taken to the hospital by intensive care ambulance. A paramedic, Ayman Arnaout, stated that the man was initially in moderate condition but his situation later deteriorated. MDA also reported another person trapped at the crash site, initially described as critical. Rescue teams worked to extract this individual, whose death was pronounced at the scene after extrication. Police from the Iron station responded to the crash site and are managing the incident in cooperation with emergency and rescue teams. Route 65 has since reopened to traffic, though police urged drivers to follow officers' instructions at the scene.
