Teen, Daniel Viflic hit by anti-tank missile dies of wounds













Daniel Viflic fought for his life for 10 days after being critically injured in terror attack on Negev school bus, but eventually succumbed to wounds


Daniel Viflic, who was hit by an anti-tank missile fired at a school bus in the Negev 10 days ago has died of his wounds. The 16-year-old has been fighting for his life in the Soroka University Medical Center in Beersheba since the terror attack. His condition deteriorated last week.

President Shimon Peres visited the southern communities last week and met with Zion Yemini, the driver of the school bus. "I really love him, and I couldn't understand how it was that I couldn't grab him and throw him clear of the bus," Yemini said.

"The president's visit and the fact that the people of Israel are behind him will help him to recover."

Viflic sustained serious brain damage as a result of the terror attack which ignited a round of escalation in the south.

More than 120 rockets and mortar shells were fired from Gaza after the attack.
