Two individuals drowned to death in separate incidents over the weekend in Israel. On Saturday morning, a 17-year-old boy was found unresponsive on Delilah Beach in Ashkelon, having gone missing the previous evening after entering the sea with two friends. One of the friends, a 24-year-old male, was rescued in critical condition, while another 17-year-old was rescued in light condition. Search efforts for the third individual, also 17, continued through the night until he was discovered deceased on the shoreline.

Later the same day, a man in his 30s was pulled unconscious from the water near the separate beach on the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee). Paramedics attempted resuscitation but were forced to pronounce him dead at the scene. The police urged the public to adhere to lifeguard instructions and avoid entering the sea at uncertified beaches or during dangerous conditions.
