A woman in her 70s is in serious condition after nearly drowning at Bograshov Beach in Tel Aviv on Saturday. Emergency medical teams performed resuscitation efforts on the woman at the scene. A beachgoer recounted that bystanders attempted to signal the lifeguard for about ten minutes, but the lifeguard allegedly ignored them, initially dismissing their concerns over the loudspeaker. The witness stated that the lifeguard eventually sent two children to investigate, who then realized the severity of the situation and pulled the woman from the water. According to the witness, the lifeguard's initial responses to those trying to get his attention included phrases like "What, what do you want?" and "What do you want from them, they are swimming?"
Separately, a 17-year-old male who had been missing at sea in Ashkelon since Friday was found deceased. In another incident, two men drowned and died, and a third man was found in critical condition.
