Israeli Burceba Makara after a deadly blow

Shortly before they came into force, residents in the southern Israeli city of Beersheb had to come into force, residents in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba were awakened early on Tuesday by the sound of rocket alarms on their phones.

“Extreme signal,” reads the message warning of an immediate strike. Then the sirens sounded on the streets.

Like others, the Manai Mental and her family headed for their safe room – a secure part of their apartment, built of reinforced concrete with a heavy metal door and is designed to protect against rocket attacks.

When the Iranian rocket struck, they felt the building moving and covered their heads with their hands.

“It was so strong that we decided it was the end,” she said.

When they appeared, the windows in the front of their apartment were destroyed on the floor of the rocket explosion. But they were safe.

The MAR stayed in the apartment for several hours, frightened by what he would see outside.

Right on the other side of the road, a block that is no different from hers was directly struck and partially collapsed.

Four people were killed there. The spokesman for the Southern Home Front command told the BBC that they were also in safe rooms when their building took a direct blow.

After the strike, Israeli medics and military officials rushed to Beybercheba to save the survivors and restore the remains. Volunteers and locals swept the broken glass from the streets.

“I hope this is the end,” said a BBC man as he examines the damage.

Israel and Iran confirmed after the impact of Beersheba that they agreed to end the fire, but then accused each other for breaking it.

As the residents of Beybercheba dealt with the shock and the damage of their community, they also asked whether the fragile truce would stay.

On Tuesday afternoon, Oren Cohen, 45 -year -old, stood among debris in his garden, neglected by the block that was struck. He said he couldn’t make him look at him.

“I was worried about my children, so only now I’m starting to realize what happened here,” he said.

Oren was with his wife and three children – at eight, 12 and 15 – at the impact of the impact and said the reinforced window opened the effects of the blast.

As he spoke, a group of volunteers on fluorescent vests arrived to help clean.

Even after he was directly affected, Oren said he supported Israel’s strikes on Iran, which marked the beginning of the 12-day conflict.

“I think we had no choice,” he said. “We do what we need to do to protect ourselves.”

He said he did not know if he could “count” on the cessation of fire, but trusted the Israeli government to know when it achieved its goals.

As the Marav left her home on Tuesday for the first time to evaluate the damage in her community, she also said she believed that Israel had no choice but to hit Iran.

“It would happen sooner or later. We were prepared for it,” she said.
