Panic broke out in Gastouni, a town in the western Greek region of Elis, after a 12-year-old boy fell from a height of over three meters at his home. The incident occurred on Tuesday, 23 June 2026.
According to reports by Patrisnews, the boy sustained head injuries and was bleeding following the fall. Though conscious and responsive—maintaining contact with his surroundings and full awareness—he required urgent medical attention.
His mother discovered him shortly after the fall and immediately alerted the authorities. Emergency services responded swiftly: police and fire department units arrived on site, along with an EKAB (National Centre for Emergency Care) ambulance. Medical personnel administered first aid before transporting the child to hospital.
