BDE to the family. Please move the ad in the article. It is the last thing we need to see when reporting a childs tragic death.
The plastic bags used for sandwiches and the like in Israel are very thin and dangerous-time to ban them. This is not the first choking tragedy due to plastic bags -oy rachmanus!!
