At least 60 people were wounded, including three critically, when a terrorist drone struck the Binyamina area in northern Israel, some 25 miles southeast of Haifa, on Sunday night, according to medics.

According to the Magen David Adom emergency service, five of the wounded were seriously injured, and another 15 sustained moderate wounds. The remaining victims were said to have been lightly hurt.

“We asked for the army to help by providing helicopters, and some of the wounded will be evacuated to the hospitals in the center of the country,” MDA director-general Eli Bin told local media, adding that medics were still searching the area for additional victims of the attack.

United Hatzalah said its volunteer first responders were “providing initial treatment to a large number of injured (over 20) at the scene of an incident in the Binyamina region. Some are in serious condition.”

It was not immediately clear where the drone came from. According to Israel’s Channel 12 News, two drones approached Israeli territory from the sea. While one was shot down, the second was not intercepted due to its apparent low altitude. No sirens were activated prior to the attack.
