In a heart-wrenching event within the city of Minya in Egypt, a young child met a fatal end due to electrocution while performing his duties.

Within a village of the "Al Adwa" district in the aforementioned city, a child was operating a cart that spun around to offer rides to children, aiming to support his family financially.

While engaged in his work, the child came into contact with an electrically charged machine, resulting in a fatal electric shock and immediate loss of life.

The Egyptian authorities were notified by emergency services regarding the demise of a ten-year-old child due to electrical exposure.

Following the incident, the child's body was transported for examination, which revealed that the cause of death was cardiac arrest induced by the electric shock.

After thorough investigations confirmed the absence of any criminal intent, the Public Prosecution issued orders to proceed with burial arrangements.
