A 10-year-old boy in Tiberias, northern Israel, found an unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the street and brought it to his father, narrowly avoiding a tragedy. The father recognized the danger, immediately moved his son away from the device, and alerted the police. Bomb disposal technicians arrived at the scene and confirmed that the ordnance contained explosive material, stating that a major disaster had been prevented. The device was slated for a controlled detonation shortly thereafter. This incident occurred just one day after a fatal accident in the Ramim Ridge area, where a teenager was killed and others injured by an explosive remnant. The previous day's incident involved a group of yeshiva students on a trip when a munition exploded, resulting in the death of 17-year-old Elazar Vilensky and injuries to several others who were evacuated for medical treatment.
