  "account": "A tragic incident unfolded on Sunday when a 12-year-old boy, Elhanan Karni, from Modi'in Illit, lost his life after his boat overturned on the Jordan River near Hula Valley. The Israel Fire and Rescue Authority's rescue teams launched a search operation for the missing boy. Magen David Adom paramedics, upon locating Karni's body, could not revive him and subsequently declared him dead. Israel Police, United Hatzalah, and other emergency services were integral to the search efforts. A United Hatzalah drone unit assisted in the search and provided emotional first aid at the scene. A 12-year-old boy, pulled from the water but without signs of life, was brought to the riverbank but unfortunately could not be resuscitated. Numerous police officers, including an air unit helicopter and rescue unit volunteers, were dispatched to the scene to conduct a comprehensive search.",
