One killed by shrapnel in Israel after Iran fires missiles: First responders

Israel’s first responders said one person was killed by shrapnel as several blasts rocked central Israel Monday, shortly after the military reported detecting new missiles launched from Iran.

“After performing resuscitation efforts, we had to pronounce the death of a man, approximately 40 years old,” Magen David Adom said in a statement, adding that the death occurred at a construction site in central Israel.

It added that another man was seriously injured and evacuated for treatment, with both casualties having sustained “several shrapnel injuries to their bodies.”
