Man Injured in Bnei Brak While Building Sukkah
A 60-year-old man sustained moderate injuries in Bnei Brak on Wednesday after falling from a chair while assembling a sukkah. The incident occurred on Rabbi Gnihochovsky Street, where emergency responders were dispatched. Volunteers from the Hatzalah organization and MDA paramedics provided initial medical treatment to the man, who suffered injuries to his limbs. He was evacuated in stable condition to Mayanei Hayeshua Medical Center in the city.
This incident follows a series of injuries related to sukkah construction in recent days. On Tuesday, a one-year-old baby girl was moderately injured in Bnei Brak when a sukkah wall collapsed on her from a height of approximately 2.5 meters during assembly. The infant was taken to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva.
In light of the increasing number of sukkah-related injuries, the Hatzalah organization is urging the public to be aware of the numerous dangers involved in sukkah construction. They advise extra caution and the use of proper, standardized equipment during the assembly process.
