This is the situation right now. 100 unmanned aircraft but loaded with explosives are making their way from Iran to us. It is expected that when they are close there will also be ballistic missile firing. It takes them nine hours to arrive, so we are all glued to our phones and televisions to receive the alerts in time. But it is clear to everyone that we do not really know what will happen.
There was an alarm throughout the country at three o'clock in the morning and we all met again in the shelter.
Now we are waiting for something that we know will be different from what we have experienced so far, it is not boring here.

Stay safe, Yael. I'm sure it's terrifying. Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Steve. In the meantime, we're waiting.
DeleteI saw people stacking food inside their concrete safe spaces on tv today and wept for friends and friends, as soon as the sirens started. My generation are the children whose parents survived the Holocaust... and it looked like EXACTLY the same horror experience all over again.
ReplyDeleteBe safe!
At 6:30 in the morning I went to buy some necessary things at the small store here. There were indeed more people than usual, but that's understandable.
DeleteBe safe Yael. I am praying for safety for you and your loved ones and neighbors.
ReplyDeleteTerra, I thank you so much for all your supportive comments over the years. It means a lot to me.
DeleteI am thinking of you and hope to hear soon that everyone is safe.
ReplyDeleteJayCee,Thank you for the support, in these difficult times it means a lot to me.
DeleteHope to hear that you and your family are safe.
ReplyDeleteFrances, We're fine, still waiting for something unclear.
DeleteStay safe Yael. You and your family.
ReplyDeleteLike the others have said, thinking of you.
the world's leading terrorist state cannot get nuclear weapons.
Liam, Thank you for all the encouraging posts on your blog.
ReplyDeleteWhat a world!
ReplyDeleteIt's a strange world indeed. One minute you're standing in the kitchen making lunch, and the next you're running to the shelter because someone doesn't want you to live.
DeleteHolding you in my thoughts, Yael. I have just been chatting with my daughter, she asked me to send you her best wishes too. x
ReplyDeleteElaine, Thank your daughter on my behalf, and thank you too, we just left the shelter after several hours of rocket fire at us, it's good to know that there are those who support us.
DeleteLoving continued prayers for you and your country. Stay stay friend... ~frannie
ReplyDeleteFrannie, Every good comment here is so helpful, thank you.
DeleteI am keeping you, your family, and all of Israel in my prayers. I hope this madness ends soon. Stay safe!
ReplyDeleteGlestorm, Thanks for the kind words. It probably won't be over so quickly but we are strong and we will survive.
DeleteI see you're now in the middle of a second attack. It must be terrifying. I hope you and all your family are safe.
ReplyDeleteLunda, There were three attacks in the evening, a total of one hundred missiles, we are on a break, there will be more soon, I came out of the shelter and ate some ice cream. Now I'm waiting for the rest.
DeleteSorry,Linda.
DeleteI am holding you and your family in my heart and prayers. I care.
ReplyDeleteChristina, Thank you for the kind words in such difficult times.
ReplyDeleteBonnie,I appreciate your words so much, I wish you all the best in the world.
ReplyDeleteThe escalation of war is very sad, but the Iranians have to be stopped. They are a menace! I'm sure the IDF have taken note of where the attacks are coming from, and they can soon be destroyed. Take care. Cro x
ReplyDeleteI hope you have sufficient food and provisions to take to your shelter and can rely on it for safety. It must be terrifying for you. I hope you have kindness and support around you x
