Rescuers and border police successfully extracted a nine-year-old boy from a three-meter-deep pit in the Jerusalem Hills after he fell during a youth group hike. The boy, a resident of Tel Aviv, was participating in a Saturday outing with a "pathfinders" youth club when he fell into the deep pit, remaining trapped for approximately two hours before specialists could reach him. The Israel Police reported that the Etsion-Yehuda rescue unit, MAGAV officers, and fire crews were immediately involved in the operation. Reaching the remote location required 4x4 vehicles due to the challenging terrain. A specialized rope system was deployed to lower a medic to the child, who provided immediate first aid for upper body injuries and bruises. The boy was then safely hoisted to the surface using the prepared lifting mechanism. A rescue ATV was used to transport the child from the difficult terrain to a road, where he was handed over to medical teams for further examination and transport to a hospital.
