Israelis are facing a tense situation as the threat of an Iranian attack looms over the Middle East. The recent assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran has heightened tensions, with Iran vowing to retaliate. While Israel has not confirmed its involvement in the assassination, the possibility of missile and drone attacks from Iran and its proxies has led to a surge in preparations among Israelis.
Many Israelis have been stocking up on essentials such as food, water, and batteries in anticipation of a potential attack. The rush to stores echoes the atmosphere prior to Iran's previous missile and drone onslaught in April. Despite the looming threat, some Israelis, like Yael Sasson from Ashkelon, remain resolute in their daily routines.
