AKA "Here's What It's Like for Penina and Menashe". They live in a 100 year-old building that is slated for pinui binui, urban renewal, in just a few years. They are on the second floor, no mamad in the building, no miklat (public shelter) in the neighborhood.
So they've been going to a hotel a block away:

They leave when the pre-alert sounds as there is simply not enough time once the siren goes off. Check it out for yourself (and since pretty much their whole neighborhood is in the process of urban renewal [look at the buildings on either side], it's rare that there's a clear path to the hotel:In case that doesn't work, hopefully this link will:
Unfortunately (like, HUGELY unfortunately), yesterday the hotel announced that, becuase they have no customers 😢 they are closing. As of this morning.....
The other hotel in the neighborhood is housing people displaced from their homes due to destruction from missiles and doesn't have enough space for people from the neighborhood to join their safe rooms.
Penina said that yesterday, her street and neighborhood chats were filled with everyone trying to figure out where they will go....There is an underground parking lot a few blocks away that seems like the best option now.
Praying for permanent peace and safety.....(says the woman woken up at 1 a.m. by a siren and 6 a.m. by giant booms overhead that evidently did not require a siren here)
