Over 100 fans at a Justin Bieber concert Wednesday night in Tel Aviv received medical treatment at the packed-out show, which was attended by some 50,000 Israelis.
Four people were hospitalized at the city’s Ichilov Hospital, and over 150 others were treated for light injuries by Magen David Adom paramedics at the Ganei Yehoshua Park, reports in Hebrew-language media said.
Concert-goers were treated for minor ailments, including dehydration, exhaustion, and fainting.
A pregnant woman was taken to Me’ayanei Hayeshua Medical Center after her water broke during the concert.

Bieber last played in Israel in 2011 when he was 17. That visit was marred by clashes with the paparazzi and reports that he failed to show up for a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
