JERUSALEM, March 9 (Xinhua) -- A missile attack from Iran killed a construction worker in central Israel on Monday, the country's Magen David Adom rescue service spokesman Zaki Heller told Xinhua.

His death brought the total death toll in Israel since the beginning of the conflict on Feb. 28 to 11, according to official Israeli figures.

A second worker at the same construction site in Yehud, east of Tel Aviv, was evacuated to a hospital in critical condition, Heller said. A third person at a separate location sustained serious injuries.

Yaron Schiff, a regional commander of the rescue forces, said the workers at the construction site were in an unprotected area and outside a reinforced shelter when the missile struck.
