Emergency responders from the "Hatzalah" organization and MDA paramedics were dispatched to Ben-Neria Street in Bnei Brak following a report of a fall from a height. Medical teams found a man, approximately 30 years old, suffering from back and limb injuries after falling about five meters while dismantling a sukkah. They provided him with initial medical treatment, including stabilization and bandaging, and evacuated him in moderate condition to the trauma room at Sheba Hospital in Tel HaShomer.
Following the incident, the "Hatzalah" organization issued a public appeal urging increased caution during sukkah dismantling after the holiday. They advised ensuring ladder stability, using assistance from another person when working at heights, and being mindful of screws, nails, and metal parts that may remain on the ground and cause injuries, as well as damage to vehicle tires.
