Magen David Adom (MDA) has administered medical treatment to a two-year-old who was seriously injured in a building fire in Bnei Brak in central Israel, the organization announced on Tuesday.
United Hatzalah also announced they were providing urgent care for those wounded at the scene, noting they were treating a one-year-old baby in critical condition. It is unclear if this is the same child being treated by MDA.
The toddler is conscious and has burns on its body, MDA added.
Five additional people were lightly injured in the same incident from smoke inhalation.
Investigations ongoing
All victims of the incident have been transferred to Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer and Rabin Medical Center-Beilinson Campus in Petah Tikva.
The circumstances surrounding the fire are still being investigated, according to Ynet. Four fire crews from Ramat Gan, Tel Aviv, and Bnei Brak are tackling the flames.
This is a developing story.
