Life Under Siege: A Resident's Firsthand Account of Daily Life in Israel Amidst Conflict

JERUSALEM – As tensions continue to escalate in the region, residents are adapting to a new normal marked by constant vigilance. Greta Cervantes, a local resident, recently shared her personal experience, detailing the challenges and anxieties of daily life under the threat of missile attacks. "We haven't had time to sit down and have a peaceful meal for days," Cervantes stated in a recent video. "The situation is very difficult here in Tel Aviv." She confirmed that she and her family are safe, attributing their well-being to their preparedness. "Every time Iran sends missiles, we receive a message and alerts on our phones, and the missile alarm goes off," she explained. "We run to the bunker." Cervantes revealed that their home is equipped with a bunker, providing immediate shelter. She also highlighted the community's efforts to support one another. "We help all the people we can, within our means," she said, noting that they bring in pets and neighbors' children who are caught outside during alarms. Despite the ongoing disruptions, including school closures and a shift to remote work, essential services like supermarkets remain open. Cervantes expressed a collective hope for peace: "We are all very nervous, anxious. We are hoping and praying that all of this ends soon, and that normal life can resume."
