A painful accident during Shabbos in Ramat Beit Shemesh D left two young children injured after they reportedly crashed into a curb while riding a toy scooter.

Shabbos responders from Tzevet Hatzalah — paramedic Nati Ben Shimon and EMTs Chanuch Revach and Bentzi Tachover — said that upon arriving at the scene, they found two children suffering from injuries of varying severity. Together with additional MDA responders, they provided emergency medical treatment, including controlling bleeding, immobilization, and bandaging.

An 8-year-old boy who sustained a significant head injury was transported in moderate condition, while a 6-year-old boy was taken to the hospital in light condition. Both were transferred to an MDA intensive care ambulance and evacuated to the trauma unit at Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center for further treatment.

Meanwhile, Tzevet Hatzalah issued a call to volunteers and the broader public to daven for Yosef Chaim ben Shirel, the son of one of the organization’s life-saving volunteers. The child underwent resuscitation efforts on Leil Shabbos and, b’chasdei Shamayim, regained full consciousness. However, he remains in need of Rachamei Shamayim and continued tefillos for a complete recovery.
