This morning (Monday), at around 7:00 AM, a report was received at the ZAKA hotline about a 50-year-old woman who was found lifeless and in a state of decomposition inside a shelter on Eilot Street in Eilat - several days after her death.
ZAKA Eilat volunteers were called to the scene and worked in the complex scene, treating the deceased with dignity and collecting the remains.
Rabbi Shimon Eisenbach, commander of the Eilat ZAKA, said: "It was a very challenging and difficult scene. The deceased was found inside a shelter without electricity and without lighting, and access to the place is not at all easy.
""A man who used to bring her food from time to time arrived at the scene and discovered her lifeless, after no contact had been made with her for over a week. ZAKA volunteers worked in the difficult scene, treating the deceased with dignity and collecting the remains.""
This is the second case in the city in less than a day, after yesterday afternoon a 50-year-old man was found lifeless in his home on Yotam Road in Eilat, several days after his death.
Neighbors noticed that he had not left his house for several days - and called the police to the scene.
ZAKA Eilat volunteers took care of the dignity of the deceased and collected the findings at the scene.
