A teenaged girl from New Jersey fell and broke her ankle during a hiking trip in the Western Galilee Wednesday.

The 15-year-old girl was participating in a hike with a Bnei Akiva summer camp.

Volunteers from the Galil Carmel rescue unit and Magen David Adom were called to the scene to provide first aid and extract her from the wilderness.

She was evacuated on a stretcher out of the area and taken to a hospital in Nahariya.
