Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas declared Friday a day of mourning for the victims, who he described as “martyrs of trying to make a living.” Thousands of Palestinian laborers work in Jewish settlements along Highway 90, which runs through the Jordan Valley.
Videos circulating online appeared to show the truck slamming into the van head-on as the van sought to make a left turn off the highway.
Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue service confirmed the seven deaths and said three people were evacuated by military helicopter for medical treatment, including an 18-year-old and a 20-year-old in critical condition. One of them passed away later.
