Six Israelis were injured when a vehicle struck them near Tiberias in northeastern Israel on Wednesday, police said.

Three of the injured are in critical condition, and two others are in serious condition, Israel’s national ambulance service (MDA) said.

Police said that the incident was not an attack, explaining that two women and a man stopped to attend to a broken-down vehicle on Poriya Junction near Tiberias when they were hit by a passing car.
