A severe incident occurred Monday morning at an educational institution in Bnei Brak, where an 8-year-old boy sustained critical injuries when his finger was severed by a heavy door.

United Hatzalah emergency teams responded to the scene, provided initial medical treatment, and transported the child to the hospital. The severed part of the finger was placed in an ice pack in an attempt to save it.

According to Moshe Froilich, a United Hatzalah medic who treated the boy, the injury happened when a heavy door slammed on the child's finger, completely severing it. "His friends told us that a heavy door slammed on his finger and it was severed," Froilich reported. "With the help of other medics, I provided him with medical treatment, placed the severed part of the finger in an ice pack, and he was then evacuated to the hospital, where doctors will attempt to save and reattach the finger."

The child was taken to the hospital in moderate condition, and medical staff will attempt to reattach the severed finger.
