The child's hand was sucked into a pipe in the hotel pool, and the girl's father dived in to help, but the hand was impossible to release. Seven men came to the rescue and pulled the child out of the water. Eyewitnesses called an ambulance, which delivered the victim to the Bodrum hospital. Later, it was decided to transport the child to the state medical clinic in Denizli with an intensive care unit. Doctors from St. Petersburg arrived in Turkey last week to help colleagues treat the girl.
