An unusual incident occurred on Tzinbari Beach on the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) on Monday, when a portable gas stove exploded, causing burns to several beachgoers. The injured were evacuated to Poriya Hospital for medical treatment. According to the Kinneret Cities Association, a group of young men at the beach lit a small portable stove, and another stove was placed nearby. At one point, one of the stoves exploded, igniting a fire and injuring nearby visitors with burns and other harm. Police and Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency medical teams responded to the scene, providing initial treatment before transporting the injured to Poriya Hospital. Arik Tal, head of the supervision unit at the Kinneret Cities Association, stated that this is not the first such incident during the bathing season, with several cases of portable stoves igniting on Kinneret beaches. Tal urged visitors to exercise extreme caution when using portable stoves, especially during hot weather and high temperatures. He advised protecting stoves from direct sunlight and avoiding placing them close to each other during use. The association emphasized that placing gas canisters and stoves near heat sources can be dangerous and called on beachgoers to adhere to safety instructions.
