The man, a 30-year-old resident of the central Israeli Arab town Jaljulya, was transferred to Beilinson Medical Center for care, according to Magen David Adom emergency services.

The man reportedly stopped his vehicle in the middle of the road after sensing that something was not right, and then jumped out of the car before it exploded.

Last week, a woman was killed and two others injured in a car explosion in the central Israeli city of Ramle, in what police suspect was an assassination.
