The incident took place on Saturday, when the girl, identified as Safa SA, was playing in her house and ventured into the balcony from where she fell, the Khaleej Times reported.

Her parents, who were inside the house, were unaware of her movements, the report said.

The doctors have said that the girl has suffered multiple injuries and is put on artificial respiration, the report said.
