Bomb shelters open up in Tel Aviv area

Judah Ari Gross is The Times of Israel's religions and Diaspora affairs correspondent.

The city of Tel Aviv and a number of suburbs, including Rishon Lezion and Ramat Gan, have announced that they are opening public bomb shelters amid growing fears that central Israel may also be targeted by rocket fire.

This is in light of recent instructions issued by the Israel Defense Forces’ Home Front Command.
