| Another quick update before the weekend/Shabbat. Today, Tel Aviv was hit hard with a Hamas rocket barrage from Gaza, causing significant damage to an apartment building and injuring three individuals. The owner of the targeted apartment remarked, "It was a miracle from heaven that the residents were not present." Israel continues its strikes on Gaza from both air and sea, while clashes have resumed in Lebanon, leading to rockets targeting IDF positions and subsequent Israeli artillery retaliation. This escalation underscores the broadening conflict, with over 5,400 wounded and the IDF reporting 229 captives in Gaza—a number that's rising as identification efforts continue. Concurrently, Ashkelon faces renewed attacks, with casualties reported from a recent rocket strike that hit a construction site and a residential building's ninth floor, prompting immediate search and rescue operations. In the face of this ongoing war, Zaka Tel-Aviv's role is indispensable. Our dedicated teams are on the ground, delivering medical aid, orchestrating evacuations, and supporting those affected, highlighting our unwavering commitment to the community. |
