A 76-year-old man wounded in an Iranian missile strike in June died of his injuries on Monday, nearly four months after his life partner was killed by the same projectile in Ramat Gan, near Tel Aviv.

Aharon Mizrahi was seriously wounded on June 13, while his partner, Etti Cohen Angel, was killed instantly in the apartment they shared when the missile struck. Mizrahi had remained hospitalized since the attack.

In July, an 85-year-old man who was injured by an Iranian missile in Rehovot, roughly 25 miles south of Tel Aviv, died from his wounds at Kaplan Medical Center. Earlier that month, the Philippine embassy in Israel announced that Leah Mosquera, a Filipina caregiver working in the country, had also died from injuries sustained in the same June 15 missile attack.

During the 12-day war between Jerusalem and Tehran, Iranian missiles killed over 30 people in Israel, injured more than 3,000 and displaced some 13,000 others.
