Few guys had a picnic in the north yesterday, but went inside a mines field in spite of warning signs.
One of them triggered a mine which blew off one of his legs.
Rescue team sent a helicopter, strapped him and just when he was about to get inside, the cables became undone and he fell from a height of about twenty meters. Was declared dead after a short while.

Any tragedy is upsetting but this unfortunately appears to be because of the men being foolhardy and ignoring the warning signs, I personally have fond memories of Bet She-an in the 70's IIRC it was a beautiful area.
