Köhler did not get away fast enough and was killed in the attack himself. 12 other people died and 211 were injured. The area affected by the bombing was the size of a football field, approximately 100 metres by 60 metres. Reconstruction from the site of the bombing indicates that it was created from a British mortar projectile manufactured in 1954.
