About two weeks ago, a two-year-old toddler fell from the living room window of a house on the third floor onto a second-floor balcony on Ibn Gvirol Street in Elad. She was taken to the hospital in moderate to serious condition.
A few days earlier, a 10-year-old boy was seriously injured as a result of a fall from a height on Saturday afternoon on Shimon HaTzadik Street in Elad.
The United Hatzalah organization reiterates: "It is mandatory to warn and prevent children from playing dangerously in places prone to falling from heights.".
