Just hours after the tragic story in Southern Israel that left 10 students dead, and others in critical condition, a bus overturned due to flash-flooding.

Magen David Adom says the incident occurred at the Rotem Junction near the Dead Sea, where heavy rains and flash-flooding tipped over the bus.

Bichasdei Hashem, all passengers were able to make it off safely.

“All the passengers are safe and units are at the scene,” police said in a statement.

MDA says only minor injuries were reported.

Heavy rains continued to pound part of Eretz Yisroel on Thursday night, as flash-flooding warnings were repeatedly issued.
