Two girls aged around 10 years old were lightly hurt by a falling tree at their school in Rishon Lezion as Storm Byron bears down on Israel, the Magen David Adom ambulance service says.
The girls were taken by medics to Shamir Medical Center, MDA says.
Some areas of Israel have recorded around 200 millimeters (nearly 8 inches) of rain since the beginning of Storm Byron, Hebrew media outlets report, with Nahal Ma’arot Nature Reserve receiving 205 mm and the northern town of Atlit 193 mm.
