Authorities find a vehicle with significant body damage and the driver, an Israeli national, has been taken into custody
Two Spanish nationals were killed after being run over at dawn in a tunnel where they were working on the highway between Jerusalem and Hebron. Police identified them as employees of the company responsible for working on this key route in Israel’s plans to move settlers from the settlements to the holy city. The investigation is open to clarify the causes of what happened and diplomatic sources consulted by the EFE agency have indicated that authorities have found a vehicle with significant damage to the body and that the driver, an Israeli national, is in custody.
Media outlets such as The Times of Israel picked up on the event and called it “an apparent accident”. The news was accompanied by data on accidents on the roads of Israel, where 318 people have died in accidents and collisions this year. Route 60 records heavy traffic and, as the Israeli newspaper reports, last week at a point near the tunnel where the Spaniards died, a 30-year-old woman lost her life and a girl was seriously injured in a collision between two cars and a truck .
Of the two men, who worked in a construction company, one of them had a permanent residence in the province of León, specifically in the town of Villaseca de Laciana. According to ‘Leonoticias’, the man, AF, was 43 years old. The wife and two young daughters of the deceased live in Ponferrada. Relatives of the victim are expected to travel to Israel to continue the repatriation of the body. From Villablino, the sad news has been a “hard blow” to the region, where this Leonese, of Cape Verdean origin, lived with his family.
