A 14-year-old boy is in critical condition after falling from a horse in an open area near the Arab-Israeli village of Kaokab Abu al-Hija in the Western Galilee. Channel 12 reports that Magen David Adom (MDA) paramedics treated the teenager, who had suffered a severe head injury, and evacuated him to Rambam Medical Center in Haifa while performing resuscitation efforts. MDA described his condition as critical. The incident appears to be a recreational accident; no unusual circumstances have been reported, and the investigation into the fall is ongoing. The Zioneer has previously covered several accidental injuries involving teenagers in the area and elsewhere in Israel, including a 12-year-old scooter rider injured in the same village in early June.
