Toddler rescued after drowning in pool at Mata Yehuda regional council building

A toddler was rescued after drowning in a swimming pool at a building belonging to the Mata Yehuda regional council on Wednesday. Emergency responders from Magen David Adom (Israel’s national ambulance service) provided immediate medical treatment at the scene before transferring the child to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem. The child’s condition is reported as moderate. The Mata Yehuda regional council serves communities in the Judean Hills west of Jerusalem, and the incident has prompted renewed focus on pool safety protocols in public facilities across the region.
