Nine people were injured on Thursday morning in a self-inflicted accident on Route 353, near the community of Sherigim, when a minibus overturned onto its side.

Among the injured was a man in his 30s, described as being in serious condition, who was sedated and ventilated upon transport. United Hatzalah reported this seriously injured individual as being 18 years old.
