A 10-year-old boy, Eliyahu Azriel, died on Wednesday after a recycling bin exploded in the city of Beitar Illit. His funeral was held late Wednesday night at the Sephardic funeral home in Jerusalem.

Authorities suspect the incident occurred when children ignited a recycling bin. A burning object then flew out of the bin and struck Eliyahu, causing severe burns and injuries. He was rushed to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in critical condition, where he was pronounced dead.

MDA paramedics reported receiving the call at 4:56 PM. Upon arrival, they found the boy unconscious with no pulse or breathing, suffering from extensive trauma and burns.
