Doing some research on the person on this death card and could use some help.

So this is the death card of a Anni Löhr. She was a German civilian living in the German Town of Neuwied. She was killed by what the card states as a “terrorist attack” on September 8th 1944. Im assuming that means it was some type of aerial bombing/attack by one of the allied nations. She is on the German war graves commission website but it doesn’t give a lot of info. Only that she was born on March 13th 1908. My main goal is to determine how exactly she was killed. If it was an aerial bombing etc I’d like to know what specific operation it was. So far I can’t find any events that happened in Neuwied on September 8th that would be classified as a terrorist attack. I can’t find any info on any sort of attacks on the town during that time. I did find that the town was bombing by the Allies but that wasn’t until December of 1944. Over a month after she was killed so it can’t be that. Any help would be appreciated.

Located near Koblenz, the whole area was heavily bombed during the war. 87 % of the Koblenz town area was destroyed by end of the war. (37 bomb raids)

The "Area Bombing Directive" of the Allies was called by the German Propaganda "Terror Attacks".

So, Anni Löhr was killed by the first attack on Irlich-Neuwied. According to this obituary she was killed at her work.
