The emergency services say they are treating dozens of casualties
Dozens of people are reported to be injured after a truck hit a bus stop in what is suspected to be a deliberate attack in central Israel.
At least four people are in a serious condition and others remain trapped under wreckage at the scene in Glilot, just north of Tel Aviv.
Police say the circumstances of the incident are still under investigation, but local media reported the incident as a suspected attack.
Israeli television channels showed police cordoning off the area as emergency personnel helped the injured and a helicopter hovered above.
"At 10:08 AM, a report was received in MDA's 101 Emergency Call Center in the Yarkon Region of a truck hitting a bus stop on Aharon Yariv Boulevard in Ramat Hasharon.
"MDA EMTs and Paramedics are currently providing medical treatment on site to dozens of casualties," Israel’s emergency services said in a statement.
"Among the injured: 4 in serious condition, 2 in moderate condition, and 4 in mild condition," the statement added.
