Although Buaron had never assisted in a live birth before, he used his training with MDA to help the woman deliver her son successfully.
Ilan Buaron thought it would be a regular shift at his food service company, but he ended up delivering more than pizza.
The 22-year-old, who was employed by Wolt, an Israeli food delivery service, and also a Magen Dovid Edom (MDA) emergency volunteer, was out late Tuesday delivering pizza in Ramat Gan.
He drove his scooter to the restaurant to pick up the pizza and was on his way to make the delivery when he received an MDA announcement asking for assistance for a woman given birth in Ramat Gan.
Buaron realized the woman was very close to where he was driving, and instead of delivering the pizza right away, he changed his route with the pizza and headed towards the woman’s residence.
