Elad Child Injured by Fireworks Ahead of Purim


ichudThe warnings are heard annually but unfortunately, too many do no comprehend the dangers associated with fireworks, especially children and for some, fireworks have become a part of their Purim celebration.

Ichud Hatzalah on Sunday, 10 Adar reported a 5-year-old boy in Elad sustained a facial injury after fireworks were hurled in his direction on Yosef Caro Street in Elad. The child was conscious and alert when transported to Schneider Children’s Hospital in Petach Tikvah, reportedly with facial and eye injuries.

EMT Yair Porush stated “I arrived on the scene and saw the boy with a face and eye injury. Miraculously, he was totally conscious and alert and this sad incident reminds us once again of the need for parental supervision if fireworks are handled”.
