Car Explodes and Catches Fire in Holon Hours After Jaffa Blast
A severe incident occurred in Holon shortly after a car explosion in Jaffa that killed a man in his 40s and a separate deadly event in Qalansawe. Minutes ago, emergency services responded to a car explosion on HaLohamim Street in Holon. Paramedics from Magen David Adom treated a man in his 30s who was critically injured with multiple trauma and unconscious at the scene. He was urgently transported to Wolfson Medical Center for further care.

Paramedic Shalom Ben David and emergency medical technician Shlomi Vaknin described arriving quickly to find the vehicle ablaze and the driver unconscious nearby, receiving immediate medical attention before hospital transfer.
