Eight-Year-Old Critically Injured After Falling From Fourth Floor in Bnei Brak

An eight-year-old boy was critically injured after falling approximately 12 meters (four stories) from a building in Bnei Brak on Sunday. Paramedics from Magen David Adom (MDA) provided him with life-saving medical treatment at the scene before transporting him to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva. The boy was reportedly unconscious and suffering from a severe head injury.

Initial reports suggest the child may have been locked in his room on the fourth floor and attempted to exit through the balcony. During this attempt, he fell into the building's parking area. Emergency responders described finding the boy on the ground with a severe head injury and multi-system trauma.

Medical teams, including those from Hatzalah and MDA, stabilized the child and transported him to the trauma unit at Beilinson Hospital. The circumstances surrounding the incident are currently under investigation.
