Israeli teen critically injured in extreme activity accident in Ahaloy, Bulgaria

A 17-year-old Israeli tourist fell into a coma after striking rocks during an extreme activity accident on a water ride in Ahaloy, Bulgaria, Israeli media report. The operator, Ivan Sibov, was arrested on suspicion of operating without permits. Two other Israelis sustained light injuries.

Update Thursday 15:11 — An initial report from Israeli media indicated a severe marine accident in Burgas, but earlier and more detailed messages from Wednesday, first reported by The Zioneer on Wednesday 21:18, pinpoint the location as Ahaloy (אהלוי), a resort town north of Burgas. The 17-year-old victim is in a coma after striking rocks on a water ride. The operator, Ivan Sibov, was arrested on suspicion of lacking permits. Two additional Israelis were lightly injured. The Burgas reference in the Thursday broadcast appears to be a general regional description rather than the precise accident site.
