The story · English

On Wednesday, firefighters in Israel successfully rescued a child whose hand became trapped deep inside the metal whisk attachment of a household mixer. The child was unable to free himself, prompting his family to call emergency services. Firefighters from the National District station arrived promptly and found the child's hand entangled tightly within the rigid metal wires of the whisk, immobilizing him.

The rescue operation required delicate and precise work. The firefighters calmed the distressed child and carefully used a specialized rotary cutting tool called a Dremel to surgically cut through the metal wires one by one. The operation was led by Chief Rescuer Chief Gordon Assouline, who emphasized the need for great accuracy and sensitivity to avoid injuring the child's hand during the procedure.

Thanks to the firefighters' professionalism and calm approach, the child was freed safely without any physical harm. The incident concluded without injuries, described as a fortunate outcome by the rescue team.
