The rescue of three hikers on Mount Tzin has escalated with the arrival of a military helicopter. As The Zioneer reported earlier (20:46), the hikers, part of a prayer group, were found collapsed near the summit. The Arava Rescue Unit was first on scene. The helicopter's arrival suggests the extraction may be complex due to the terrain or the hikers' condition. The three were reportedly suffering from exhaustion or dehydration after climbing the mountain. No further details on their condition are available at this time.
