A tragic fire in the village of Mas'ada in the Golan Heights on Sunday claimed the life of a 60-year-old disabled woman who used a wheelchair. Firefighters responding to the blaze entered the smoke-filled structure and found the woman on the floor in critical condition. They evacuated her and performed resuscitation efforts until medical personnel arrived, who unfortunately pronounced her dead at the scene.
Simultaneously, firefighting teams worked to extinguish the fire's source, ventilate the building, and prevent its spread to adjacent areas, eventually gaining full control of the incident. The Northern District Commander has ordered the establishment of a special investigation team by the Israel Fire and Rescue Services to determine the cause of the fire.
Deputy Commander of the Galilee-Golan Region, Eli Mor, stated that the team responded to a citizen's report of a fire and a trapped individual. He emphasized the critical importance of installing smoke detectors in homes to provide early warnings and save lives.
