A one-and-a-half-year-old toddler was found without a pulse or breathing in a public park in Ashkelon, southern Israel, following a fall. Emergency responders from Ichud Hatzala South and Magen David Adom (MDA) were dispatched to the scene on Shderot HaNasi street after being alerted by an MDA dispatch center. Upon arrival, medical teams found civilians providing initial aid to the child and continued advanced resuscitation efforts under the guidance of MDA's 101 emergency number. The toddler was then transported by an MDA intensive care unit to Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon, still in critical condition and undergoing resuscitation.

Miraculously, during the transport to the hospital, the MDA intensive care team reported that the toddler's heart had begun beating again and his pulse had returned.
