Shlomo Ezra Eked (73), who was evacuated to Ichilov Hospital from Habima in Tel Aviv, told Ynet about the moments of the strike. He said: "I was in my car, I didn't hear the advance warning and when I heard the siren the traffic light was red — suddenly there was a massive explosion, the windshield and windows flew at me and the curb stones of the sidewalk too, they flew into the car and hit me in the head."
