A male about 60 was murdered, a 58-year-old female and a 15-year-old male were seriously injured, and a male about 30 was moderately injured in a combined attack at the Gush Etzion Junction.

Today (Tuesday) at 14:04, Magen David Adom’s 101 Emergency Dispatch Center received reports of a combined ramming and stabbing attack at the Gush Etzion Junction. Large MDA forces were dispatched to the scene, including mobile intensive care units, ambulances, and MDA medicycle responders. MDA EMTs and paramedics were forced to pronounce the death of a man about 60 who suffered stab wounds. They provided medical treatment to three additional casualties and evacuated them to Hadassah Ein Kerem and Shaare Tzedek Medical Centers: a 58-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy in serious condition, and a 30-year-old man in moderate condition with penetrating injuries. Two terrorists were neutralized at the scene by security forces.

MDA’s Blood Services call on the public in Israel, especially those with type O blood, to come and donate blood. Information on blood-donation sites across the country can be found on MDA’s website or by calling 03-5300400. One unit of blood can save the lives of three patients and casualties.

The funeral procession for Lior Rudaeff, an MDA volunteer killed on October 7, and whose body was held by Hamas, was held today.

The convoy was accompanied by many MDA staff and vehicles, including an ambulance dedicated in Lior's memory.

Following the return of the body of Master Sergeant (Res.) Lior Rudaeff (61) — a fallen IDF soldier, Magen David Adom Emergency Medical Technician volunteer, Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak deputy security officer, and member of the standby security squad, who was killed in battle and whose body was abducted to Gaza during the October 7th attack, Magen David Adom bows its head and shares in the family’s grief.

For nearly 40 years, Lior z”l volunteered with Magen David Adom as an Emergency Medical Technician and ambulance driver. On the morning of October 7th, as a member of the community security standby squad and an MDA volunteer, Lior left his home to confront the terrorists and assist the wounded during the assault. He was killed in combat, and his body was taken captive by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organization.

Lior z”l is survived by his wife Yafa, four children — Noa, Nadav, Bar, and Ben — and three grandchildren — Tomer, Dagan, and Shai. The Magen David Adom family embraces Lior’s loved ones, who will forever remain part of the MDA family. In July, marking his birthday, Lior’s family held a blood donation drive in cooperation with MDA’s Blood Services, inviting the public to continue donating and helping others — just as Lior did throughout his life.

Yoske’s and his family’s wish to celebrate his Bar Mitzvah finally came true.
Thirteen years ago, his parents didn’t know if this day would ever arrive, but with the help of Magen David Adom’s Wish Ambulance team and the Herzog Medical Center staff, Yoske, who is ventilator-dependent, was able to celebrate his Bar Mitzvah at the Western Wall surrounded by his loved ones.

“It was so emotional to see his family’s joy and to be part of it,” said Paramedic Batya Shushan, who led the MDA team.

The Wish Ambulance fulfills the dreams of people facing serious or terminal illness, bringing them to family events, heritage sites, or places close to their hearts, all free of charge, with care, compassion, and love.

Since the beginning of the Iron Swords War, stickers featuring photos of the hostages and calling for their return have been placed on Magen David Adom ambulances and Mobile Intensive Care Units. Now, about three weeks after returning from Hamas captivity, hostage survivor Segev Kalfon removed from a Magen David Adom Mobile Intensive Care Unit the sticker bearing his own photo and the call for his return.

Uri Abutbul, Volunteer Coordinator at MDA’s Dimona Station:
“From the day you were kidnapped, Magen David Adom across the country placed stickers with your pictures on our ambulances. Segev, we are honored to give you the privilege of removing the sticker yourself. On behalf of Magen David Adom, our volunteers and staff, we wish you good health, much success, and we are so happy to have you back home.”

Segev Kalfon removed the sticker and said:
“It’s a great honor for me. Thank you very much for everything you do. It is truly sacred work.”
