A woman in her 60s was injured after being hit by a bus on Alufei Tzahal Street in Holon on Sunday. She sustained a head injury and was evacuated to the hospital in moderate condition. Medical teams from United Hatzalah provided initial treatment at the scene before her transfer.

This incident adds to a concerning trend of pedestrian accidents in Israel, particularly affecting vulnerable populations in urban areas. According to data from the Central Bureau of Statistics and the National Road Safety Authority, 459 people died in road accidents in 2025, marking the deadliest year on Israeli roads in nearly two decades.

United Hatzalah paramedics Or Dor, Hillel Hamawi, and Avraham Mamtayahu Maimon reported that the woman was treated promptly at the scene and then taken to the hospital for further care. The rising number of pedestrian casualties underscores the urgent need for continued efforts to improve road safety in Israel.
