Magen David Adom Carmel crews evacuated the 30-year-old mother, Hava Shtudlener, in critical condition, her four-year-old son in serious condition and her two other children, aged three and one-and-a-half, in light condition, to Rambam Hospital in Haifa.
En route to the hospital, MDA crews were able restore a viable heart rhythm for the mother after an extended resuscitation. However, after undergoing emergency surgery, in which doctors performed a cesarean delivery to retrieve the fetus, after being 30 minutes alive doctors were unable to save the unborn baby or the mother and their death was later pronounced, Channel 2 news reported.
The four-year-old, who suffered severe head trauma, was evacuated to Rambam while he was artificially respirated and in a comatose induced state. He later stabilized, and was downgraded to moderate condition, according to Channel 2 news
Police which arrived at the scene described the accident as “very severe.” According to initial investigations, the mother crossed the street in an area that was unmarked for pedestrian crossing.
Police said the driver was a 30-year-old resident of Haifa. He was arrested and will be investigated.

May this be the last Korbon. May we only hear Bsuros Tovos and may we be Zoche to the Geulah Shelaimah speedily in our days!
When anything chas vesholem happens between rosh hashana & yom kippur, seforim say that its from the previous years account cuz “ubeyom tzom kippur yeichoseimim” so obviously this tragedy was signed last year
Shenishma vanisbaseir besoros toivos!
Baruch dayan emes…there have been too many of these tragedies recently and to “Mommy #1 ,the article doesn’t say anything that the tatteh was somehow negligent or careless in this accident
Until yom kipur it is on last years account, the time is NOW for teshuva.
to number 10,she was not referring to the father of children, she was davening to Hashem that these things should stop happening, by Tatte, she means Hashem.
it would also help,if the drivers wouldnt drive like chayos. as is the norm in israel.and the people crossing the streets should be VERY careful before crossing over. we have to do our hishtadlus too. b’d’e
She was walking in an area unmarked for pedestrians. Who says the driver is at fault?
To Shvartzi No. 14:
I am one of those Israeli drivers who “drive like chayos”. But when a women with 3 little children enters the street between parked cars my “wildness” is not relevant.
To 16 Greener: What a silly comment… of course it seems she was in the wrong but when you drive too fast and reclessly (as many Israeli drivers do) you are unable to respond to other peoples mistakes.
