Sirens

For 46 communities, the time will be extended from 30 to 45 seconds. For another three communities, it will be extended to a full minute.

Maybe we need that last one as a new tradition of ringing another siren at the beginning of every Independence Day – an alert that we are part of a very special country.

Despite this, when sirens sounded along the Lebanese border, the IDF classified the event as a 'false identification.'

According to the Israel Police and the IDF, no injuries or casualties were reported in the military base hit, while additional falls were reported across central Israel.

In the video, one of the individuals can be heard shouting at the gate that they are a teacher, before blaming Kisch for the Iranian attack, and that "these missiles are your fault! Protect me!"

Even though Seder night is called “Leil Shimurim” (a night of protection), Israeli Rabbi Yitzhak Yaakov Fuchs explains that we must not rely on miracles when danger is common.

“Notice the people outside who need help,” she wrote. “The siren caught me twice on the road, and it immediately threw me back into helplessness and uncontrollable fear.”

Sirens reach particularly high intensities and experts warn that repeated exposure to such noise may cause cumulative damage to hearing even if it is not felt immediately.

Meanwhile, United Hatzalah paramedics successfully performed CPR on a girl, including using a defibrillator, after she fell out of bed during a siren, intending to rush to a sheltered area.

Channel 13 reported that Israel issued a NOTAM indicating Ben-Gurion Airport flights may remain restricted until at least April 16 amid ongoing attacks from Iran and Hezbollah.
