Rehovot, Israel – Olga Wisberg, a 91-year-old Holocaust survivor, passed away after being critically injured by an Iranian missile strike in Rehovot. The missile, which struck the city during the ongoing conflict, caused severe injuries to Wisberg, who collapsed at her home on Saturday. Emergency teams from Magen David Adom (MDA) arrived on the scene, but were unable to save her life, confirming her death.
Wisberg, who had survived the atrocities of World War II, tragically found herself once again living through the horrors of war, but this time on Israeli soil. The emotional toll of the recent missile attacks was too much for her, and her health deteriorated rapidly in the days leading to her sudden collapse.
Her funeral is scheduled for today (Sunday) at 5:00 PM at the Grodzki Cemetery in Rehovot. Her family has requested that the public join in her final farewell.
This loss is a poignant reminder of the ongoing trauma experienced by those who survived the Holocaust, now facing the brutality of another war in their final years.
