Two children, aged 5 and 6, were hospitalized in Nahariya on Sunday after ingesting chocolate containing hallucinogenic mushrooms during a family vacation. The children, who are not siblings, were admitted to Galilee Medical Center with neurological symptoms including confusion, dilated pupils, and active hallucinations. Medical staff, in consultation with the Israel Poison Information Center, determined they had likely consumed a psychedelic substance. Dr. Sali Makhum, a physician at the pediatric emergency department, stated, "The children came to us in a state of confusion, dilated pupils, and active hallucinations." They were transferred to pediatric intensive care for continuous supervision due to the "volatile nature of this type of poisoning." One parent has reportedly taken responsibility for the incident, which the hospital described as a "serious and life-threatening incident."
