The PassportCard insurance company is flying to Israel tonight (between Saturday and Sunday) one of the injured from the fatal road accident in Georgia, in which two tourists from Israel were killed and 14 other Israelis were injured.
Dr. Rosman Ziv, who accompanies the special operation, reported: "It is a woman in her 40s, who is moderately injured.
So far it has not been in a stable enough condition for us to move it to Israel." He also said: "Although we are very satisfied with the technology in Georgia, if there are complications it is better that it be in Israel."

The accident happened in a mountainous area not far from the city of Batumi on the Black Sea coast.
A group of 16 tourists from Israel made their way to the Makhonzeti Falls, when a truck coming from the opposite direction collided with the minibus they were traveling in.
Five injured were flown to Israel earlier, and landed in Israel on Saturday morning.
Assaf Knafo, one of the Israeli travelers, told Israel Hayom: "We went for a trip to the waterfalls, and when turning left, a huge truck veered into our path and ran into us. In the seconds after the accident, it was quiet, and then the shouting started."
Karina, Assaf's partner, told about the moments of horror: "It took me a long time to understand what was happening, I was in shock. I started shouting that I had no hands, I was sure that my hand had been cut off because I didn't feel it."
