An Iranian missile that hit a residential building on June 15 wounded an 85-year-old man, who we now learn died of his injuries on Monday night, reports JNS:

An 85-year-old man who sustained moderate injuries in an Iranian missile attack during the 12-day war with the Islamic Republic in June has succumbed to his wounds, local media reported on Monday night…

“From one of the apartments we heard the voice of the elderly man who was moderately injured. We approached the rubble and spoke to him to understand his condition, and then, with the assistance of additional forces, we rescued him from the rubble,” Roth told Israel Hayom.

“Today, we sadly received the news of his death,” stated the ZAKA rescuer, adding: “This is a difficult day for me and the volunteers.”
