A man in his 30s was seriously injured Friday after falling into a pit approximately four meters deep at a factory in Kiryat Bialik, according to MDA. He was evacuated to Rambam Hospital in Haifa with stable but serious injuries, conscious but with a clouded mental state. This incident is separate from a sewage pit rescue earlier on the same street.
Earlier on Friday, The Zioneer reported that a worker in his 30s was critically injured after falling into a five-meter deep sewage pit on Ha'Eshkolot Street in Kiryat Bialik. Initial reports at 12:06 Jerusalem mentioned a victim in his 70s found unconscious and receiving CPR; later, firefighters extracted a worker in his 30s in serious but stable condition. The factory pit incident involves a different location and a separate victim.
As The Zioneer reported earlier in June, multiple workplace pit falls have occurred across northern Israel, including a critical fall from scaffolding into a pit in Kiryat Motzkin on Friday and a moderate fall from height in Kiryat Bialik earlier in the month. These events have drawn increased attention to workplace safety in the region.
Specific details about the factory pit victim's injuries remain under medical assessment; no further updates on his condition have been provided since evacuation.
