A 3-year-old girl was moderately injured after a scorpion sting in southern Israel on Monday evening, according to the Magen David Adom emergency service. MDA medics treated her at the scene and evacuated her to a hospital; her condition was listed as moderate. The precise location was not disclosed in the initial report. The case follows a similar incident last week in Tel Sheva, as reported by The Zioneer on June 28, in which a 2-year-old was also stung by a scorpion and listed in moderate condition. Scorpion stings are relatively common in southern Israel during the summer months, though they rarely result in serious injury. Further details on the child's condition and the exact circumstances were not immediately available.
