Is 100,000 NIS right for you before Shavuot? Last hours for the big lottery!

Northern District ZAKA volunteers were called to the scene and worked to provide dignity to the deceased and collect the remains.

Yehoshua Gutman, a ZAKA volunteer from the Northern District who attended the scene, said: "This is a man about 55 years old who was found lifeless in a state of decomposition. His wife, who had traveled to Eilat, returned home this evening and discovered him lifeless.".
