IDF Soldiers Rescue Camel


(Ynet News) Ilana Curiel - At the Nabi Musa military base in the Judean Desert, IDF soldiers this week noticed a camel that fell into a large crevice and couldn't get out. Capt. Razkallah Ghanem, who first spotted the distressed animal, said: "The camel had fallen into a pit about three meters (10 feet) deep and couldn't get out." Soldiers tried to help, but were unsuccessful. An adult camel can weigh hundreds of kilograms. Then Israel Nature and Parks Authority inspector Noam Yihya arrived. He said: "I went down the pit with a gun sling and asked the soldiers to pull me slowly until I was able to help the camel get out. I was glad we managed to pull the camel out in good condition. I saw that it was walking normally."
