The Times of Israel reported:
A diver was missing and feared dead on Monday evening, hours after he was attacked by at least one shark off the coast of Hadera, police and paramedics said. The incident took place near the Orot Rabin power station.

People on the beach filmed the incident on mobile phones. One man could be heard exclaiming, “Wow, wow, he’s with the shark, he’s fighting him,” as the man was seen in the distance. “They’re eating him, eating the man… Can’t see him.”
