UPDATE May 13: The victim has been identified as Shuli Katz of Kibbutz Gvaram. Haaretz notes a sad, ironic twist to the tragedy:
A neighbor said that Katz’s sister-in-law, who is visiting from the United States, was afraid to visit Katz at her home, on Kibbutz Gvaram near Ashkelon, because of the two rockets that struck Ashkelon earlier yesterday.
Instead, she asked Katz to visit her at Moshav Yesha.
