A 12-year-old girl from the Chabad kehilla in Tzfas was seriously injured on Thursday morning after falling off her bunk bed when a rocket alert siren sounded in the city at 6:13 a.m.

In her rush to reach shelter, she lost her balance, fell, and suffered head and upper-body injuries, causing her to lose consciousness.

Medical teams called to the scene began fighting for her life, shocking her with a defibrillator and performing advanced resuscitation efforts.

Rivka Twito, a Hatzalah paramedic who arrived first and began resuscitation, said: “We were told that when the siren sounded, she tried to quickly climb down from the bed to get to the protected room and slipped. She had no pulse and wasn’t breathing. Miraculously, after tremendous efforts, her heart began beating again, and we evacuated her to the hospital.”

She is now hospitalized in Ziv Medical Center, sedated and ventilated. At this time, her condition is defined as serious but stable, and she is undergoing a series of tests in the trauma unit.

A spokesperson from the Tzfas municipality said that they are providing support to the family, and a social worker is at their home to provide immediate assistance.

Her family is asking the public to pray for her refuah sheleimah: Esther Hadassah bat Chaya Mushka b’toch sha’ar cholei Yisrael.
