MDA Paramedic Yossi Shilo reported:
"We were dispatched to a site with several buildings hit by rockets. Upon arrival with multiple intensive care units, ambulances, and motorcycles, we found extensive damage and civilians nearby. A 60-year-old woman was fully conscious but injured by shrapnel and the blast. We treated her and evacuated her in serious but stable condition to the hospital."
MDA Senior EMT Moshe Nes said:
"We arrived at a scene of massive destruction. Fires were burning, and a passerby led us to a nearby parking garage where we found two men injured from the blast and debris. We treated them on site and transported them in light condition to the hospital. Additional MDA teams, in coordination with firefighters and Home Front Command, continued to search and treat others."
MDA Paramedic Eyal Rot stated:
"MDA forces arrived at the impact zone, where we found severe damage to multiple high-rise buildings amidst chaos. Near the buildings were injured civilians, panicked residents, and vehicles struck by shrapnel. We established a triage and casualty collection point, immediately performing initial assessments and treatment.
Three people in serious condition—a man in his 80s and two women in their 70s—were rescued by firefighters and transferred to us. All casualties were treated on site and quickly evacuated to hospitals. Simultaneously, MDA teams assisted many people suffering from anxiety and distributed water at the scene. Large MDA forces remain at the site, providing medical security during the search efforts."
