01 · THE DISPATCH

Singer Sasson Shaulov confirmed on Friday that he is unharmed following a traffic accident in Tel Aviv, stating he is "healthy, whole, and feeling well." The statement, issued after the midday hour, resolves a series of conflicting reports from earlier in the day. The accident occurred on Herzl Street overnight Thursday, and Shaulov was not evacuated to a hospital.

The story's coverage evolved rapidly on Friday morning. Initial reports at 08:59 Jerusalem identified a famous singer involved in a luxury-car accident with several lightly injured. Minutes later, at the same time, reports identified Shaulov as the driver and said he was uninjured, then contradicted themselves by stating he was injured, before a fourth update at 08:59 Jerusalem again said he was unharmed. By 10:25 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that Shaulov was not injured and did not require hospital evacuation. Shaulov's own statement now confirms that account.

According to initial reports, the accident involved a luxury vehicle driven by Shaulov and another car. Occupants of the other vehicle sustained light injuries. Police opened an investigation, which was transferred to the traffic-collision investigation unit, as The Zioneer reported at 10:25 Jerusalem.

The exact circumstances of the crash remain under police investigation. No further details have been released about the other injured parties or the cause of the collision.
