A truck plowed into a bus stop near an IDF base, causing panic and raising concerns over a potential attack as investigations unfold.


Dozens of individuals suffered injuries after a truck struck a bus stop near an Israeli military base in Glilot, just north of Tel Aviv. This incident is suspected to be a deliberate act, with emergency services confirming that at least six people are in serious condition while others remain trapped under the wreckage. As local investigations are underway, initial reports suggest that armed civilians in the vicinity responded by shooting and subsequently "neutralizing" the truck driver after the crash.

Eyewitness reports indicate that the attack occurred at approximately 10:08 AM on Aharon Yariv Boulevard, prompting immediate action from the MDA’s 101 Emergency Call Center. Emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics from Magen David Adom (MDA) rushed to the site to administer assistance to the injured, with emergency helicopters stationed overhead.

A spokesman from Israel’s ambulance service mentioned that many of the injured were elderly individuals who had just exited a bus prior to the collision, intending to visit the nearby IDF base. As the situation developed, Israeli news networks displayed footage of the area being cordoned off by police while emergency personnel worked to manage the crisis.

This incident raised alarms about security in the region, especially in light of recent tensions and attacks, prompting calls for further investigations and preventative measures. The broader implications of such events highlight ongoing concerns surrounding public safety and potential retaliatory actions in the area.
