According to officials at the hospital, the helicopter, identified as an IDF UH-60 Black Hawk, touched down at approximately 15:30 local time. Medical personnel and emergency responders were on standby to provide critical care to the injured IDF personnel.
The latest development follows a series of incidents in recent hours, with multiple IDF personnel reported injured in separate clashes with Lebanese forces.

In a statement, a hospital spokesperson confirmed that “our trauma team is working closely with the IDF and other medical services to provide the best possible care to those affected by the crisis.” Rambam Health Care Campus has a long history of providing advanced medical care to soldiers and civilians injured in conflict zones.
The hospital’s readiness to receive medevac aircraft and treat injured personnel is a testament to the professionalism and expertise of its medical personnel. Rambam Health Care Campus has developed extensive protocols and procedures to ensure the swift and effective treatment of trauma patients.
As the crisis in the region continues to unfold, the importance of advanced medical care and trauma response has been underscored. The IDF’s reliance on Rambam Health Care Campus and other medical facilities highlights the critical role that healthcare plays in supporting military operations and addressing the humanitarian impact of conflict.
Rambam Health Care Campus has established a dedicated ward for treating IDF casualties and has enhanced its trauma services, including its neurosurgery and orthopedic departments, to provide comprehensive care to wounded soldiers.
The Israeli military has not released an official statement regarding the identity of those on board the second medevac helicopter, citing operational security concerns.
