The identities of the two victims killed in last night’s Iranian missile attack on Ramat Gan have been cleared for publication. The deceased are Yaron and Ilana Moshe, a couple in their 70s.

During a heavy barrage of missiles launched from Iran overnight, a direct hit was recorded on a building in Ramat Gan. Magen David Adom (MDA) teams dispatched to the scene discovered the couple amid the heavy debris and destruction.

MDA Paramedic Inbar Green and Medic Naftali Halberstatt described the grim scene:

"We saw smoke rising from a building with extensive destruction and shattered glass. Among the ruins, we located two unconscious victims with no pulse and no breath, suffering from severe shrapnel injuries. After medical examinations, they showed no signs of life, and we were forced to pronounce them dead at the scene."

A walker was found in the ruins of their apartment.

Apparently, the couple did not have a safe room in their apartment and were sheltering in the stairwell. They were hit by shrapnel and tragically did not survive.
