Firefighters rescued nine people trapped in a minibus that veered off the road and overturned on Highway 353 near the community of Sharigim in the Judean lowlands on Thursday morning. The minibus was carrying nine young passengers who became stuck inside the vehicle and were unable to exit on their own.
Firefighters worked to extricate the trapped individuals. All nine passengers were freed and transferred to medical personnel. Seven sustained light injuries, one was in moderate condition, and one was in serious condition.
