A 12-year-old boy was moderately injured on Saturday after falling approximately 5 meters from the roof of a slide in a neighborhood park in Ramat Beit Shemesh, a city in the Jerusalem area. He was evacuated to Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem after receiving initial medical treatment at the scene.
On-call volunteers from the Hatzala rescue organization were dispatched to the park in the afternoon following a report of a fall from a height. Upon arrival, they were directed into the park where they found the boy suffering from head and upper limb injuries.
Paramedics and MDA (Magen David Adom) personnel provided initial medical assistance, including stabilization and bandaging. The boy was then transported by an MDA intensive care unit to the trauma room at Shaare Zedek Medical Center for further treatment.
This incident follows a series of child fall incidents in the Haredi community in recent weeks. Approximately six weeks ago, a 7-year-old boy was moderately injured after falling from a height in a Talmud Torah yard in Hadera. Earlier this year, a 26-year-old man sustained severe burns from boiling oil in a business in Ramat Beit Shemesh and was evacuated in moderate condition to Sheba Medical Center Tel HaShomer.
