The Israeli boy who survived last weekend’s deadly cable car crash in the Italian mountains is awake, communicating and will soon be moved out of intensive care, the hospital treating him said Thursday.
Five-year-old Eitan Biran has been in critical condition since the cabin he and his family were in plunged to the ground on Mount Mottarone, killing the other 14 people inside, including his parents, younger brother and great-grandparents.
Eitan and his parents had been living in Italy.
“Eitan is now awake and conscious in the intensive care unit, speaking with his aunt and looking around,” a spokesperson for Turin’s Regina Margherita hospital said.
