Jewish woman succumbs to injuries from Nice terror attack
July 18, 2016A 77-year woman who spent Bastille Day last Thursday in the city of Nice with her sister died on Monday, becoming the first Jewish fatality from the massive terror attack that ravaged the southern French town.
Raymonde Mamane, who along with her sister Clara Ben-Shimon, 75, was severely wounded by Tunisian-born terrorist Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, succumbed to her injuries on Monday, and passed away in local hospital.
The two were listed in critical condition since Friday, and were both placed on respirators.
Friends of the family described Mamane as “a wonderful woman who was [totally] dedicated to her family”, Kikar HaShabbat reported.
Mamane’s sister, Ben-Shimon, remains unconscious and in critical condition. Both of her legs have been amputated.
Relatives called on the public to pray on behalf of Carla Chaya Bat Nona (Ben-Shimon).
