The story · English

In June 2026, Israel recorded 38 road fatalities, marking an increase from 30 deaths in June 2025, according to data released by the Central Bureau of Statistics. This rise in deaths occurred despite a decrease in the total number of road accidents and injuries compared to the previous year. During June 2026, there were 496 traffic accidents involving injuries, resulting in 848 people hurt across the country. Among those injured, 174 sustained serious injuries, with hundreds more suffering minor injuries.

Comparing the June 2026 figures to the average for June in the years 2022 to 2024 also shows an upward trend in fatalities. Since the beginning of 2026, a total of 216 people have died in road accidents, which is slightly lower than the 223 fatalities recorded during the same period in 2025. The Central Bureau of Statistics noted that the 2026 data is still preliminary and subject to updates from the Israel Police.

These statistics highlight ongoing concerns about road safety in Israel, with fatalities rising even as the overall number of accidents and injuries declines. Authorities continue to monitor and update the data to inform safety measures and policies.
