According to the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, a Saudi girl who fell from a ninth-floor apartment in Turkey was evacuated by medical plane to the kingdom.
In a tweet, it said that "the Saudi consul and staff of the Saudi consulate in Istanbul bid farewell to a Saudi medical plane carrying the Saudi girl who fell from a window of a ninth-floor apartment in Istanbul."
According to the consulate, the evacuation was the result of directives from Saudi leadership and follow-up from the Saudi foreign minister. The girl's health condition was not specified.
According to media reports, a Saudi 14-year-old girl survived a fall from a ninth-floor apartment in Istanbul last month.
According to Saudi online newspaper Al Marsd, citing Turkish media, the girl fell while looking out of the apartment window, but miraculously survived after hitting a columned structure on the sixth floor.
A TV video showed people attending to the girl after she fell onto the columned structure, before one of them carried her away.
The incident took place at an unknown time.
