The Magen David Adom emergency service says it has provided medical care to 65 people since the start of the IDF’s Operation Shield and Arrow on Tuesday.

One woman was killed in Rehovot.

Twenty two people suffered physical injuries, including five people wounded by shrapnel and broken glass, three of them moderately.

In addition, 16 people were lightly hurt while running for shelter during a rocket alert siren.

Others sought treatment for acute anxiety from nearby impacts, Magen David Adom says.
