A three-year-old child is in critical condition after being left in a car for several hours in Ashdod, medics say.

Paramedics who were called to the scene pulled the child from the closed vehicle, who had lost consciousness and appeared to be suffering from heat stroke, a Magen David Adom ambulance service statement says.

The child was taken by the medics to Assuta Medical Center, the statement reads.

Details of the whereabouts of the child’s guardian remain unknown.
