In the early hours of February 25, a major fire broke out in an apartment building on Ichilov Street in Netanya, Israel.
According to Mignews, the emergency call came in during the night, with the fire originating on the building’s first floor.
Paramedics from Magen David Adom provided urgent medical assistance at the scene. An approximately 80-year-old man and woman are in critical condition, a 73-year-old woman is in serious condition, and a 42-year-old woman is in moderate condition. In total, 11 people were hospitalised at the local Laniado Hospital. It is noted that less than a day earlier, the same hospital had reported a fire caused by a patient smoking in a ward.
By morning, Magen David Adom teams remained on site, ready to assist other residents if needed. Firefighters and police continue to investigate the exact cause of the fire on the building’s first floor.
