A 21-year-old IDF soldier was killed early Thursday morning after his car hit a tree on Menachem Begin Boulevard in Kfar Saba, near the city's soccer stadium.
The soldier, a resident of Ra'anana was heading home from a party, when he drove his car into a tree.
Magen David Adom paramedics who were called to the scene evacuated him from his car, which had caught on fire, and began to treat him. However, they were soon forced to declare his death on site.
Police have begun an investigation into the cause of the accident.
