There was an improvement in the condition of the sisters who were severely injured in the car accident in Kiryat Gat.

Pediatric Intensive Care Unit Director Dr. Zahi Lazar said, "The 7-year-old sister is no longer sedated, and is assisted breathing with non-invasive respiratory support; she's talking and communicating with family and medical staff. The 5-year-old sister is still under sedation and artificial respiration. There was a slight improvement in her condition which is stable."

The condition of the family's mother has improved and is now defined as light. The father's condition continues to be very difficult, he is sedated and was admitted to the general intensive care unit.
