Woman, 50, pronounced dead after falling during rush to bomb shelter

Doctors at Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan pronounce the death of a 50-year-old woman who was seriously injured while rushing to a bomb shelter on Tuesday during a rocket alarm.

The death toll in Israel since the fighting started has thus reached nine, including an 87-year-old woman who slipped and fell last night while sirens warned of rockets fired by terrorists in the Gaza Strip.

Hebrew media also says four women suffered mild injuries last night while rushing to bomb shelters.
