The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it is taking a man in his 20s to a hospital after a near drowning at Bat Yam’s Jerusalem beach.

MDA says medics treated the man at the scene after a lifeguard pulled him out of the water.

He is taken to the Ichilov hospital in a stable condition, but unconscious and on artificial respiration, MDA says.
