A 78-year-old woman from Kfar Tamra in northern Israel died in the hospital after being injured in a car accident on Route 70 last Tuesday.
The woman was transferred in light condition to Rambam Hospital, but her condition deteriorated during the week.
The woman's 84-year-old husband was also lightly injured in the crash.
Initial investigations show the vehicle they were traveling in did not yield right-of-way to the truck which hit them.
