After some eight hours of working, police, rescue officials and ZAKA succeeded in extricating the body of a chareidi man from a narrow well near Modi’in Illit near the Green Park neighborhood in the chareidi city.
Authorities say that some children were playing in the area, and saw a man climb into the well to toivel. They never saw him emerge, and later saw his clothing near the well. The children immediately summoned emergency authorities, and shortly after their arrival, it was determined that it was no longer a rescue mission but one of recovery.
Chaim Autmazgan, the commander of the ZAKA unit explained “during the eight-hour period, ZAKA volunteers worked together with the ZAKA divers, assisted by firefighters and police at the scene to extricate the body from the well”.
Autmazgan reported the recovery of the body was a complicated operation due to the size of the well and other factors. Eventually, it was MDA paramedic Felix Loton who got the body out, with ZAKA diving experts directing his movements.
