TL;DR

A crash between two trucks on Highway 65 near the Massad junction Tuesday morning left two men wounded in moderate condition, according to Magen David Adom. Medics treated a 27-year-old and a 43-year-old at the scene and evacuated them to hospitals in the north.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Magen David Adom on Tuesday morning reported two men moderately wounded in a truck collision on Highway 65 near the Massad junction. The 27-year-old and 43-year-old were evacuated to Rambam Hospital in Haifa and the Medical Center North (Poriya) in Tiberias, according to the latest update from the source, published at 09:20 Jerusalem.

This incident is a revision of a report The Zioneer first published at 09:11 Jerusalem, which stated three people had been wounded — the same two men in moderate condition plus a third person with light injuries. All three thread items published at 09:11 Jerusalem carried that account. The 09:20 dispatch corrects the casualty count to two moderately wounded, with no mention of a third casualty, indicating a refinement of the initial report.

The Zioneer reported on June 19 a separate pair of truck crashes in the Gilboa region, including one on Highway 65 near the Sargel Junction that left a 21-year-old man moderately injured. That incident was unrelated.

The discrepancy between the initial three-casualty report and the current two-casualty update has not been explained by the source. The identity of the possibly unconfirmed third individual remains unclear.
