Kfar Saba opening public shelters
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe central Israeli city of Kfar Saba is opening its public bomb shelters for residents as a precaution amid the wave of rocket fire into southern Israel from the Gaza Strip.
The decision is made by the municipality, not the the IDF’s Home Front Command. Kfar Saba is about 20 minutes north east of Tel Aviv.
The decision comes hours after the northern city of Netanya opened its city shelters.
Earlier today, Channel 12 news said Israeli defense officials were worried the latest round of fighting with armed terrorist groups in Gaza, would spread to the north of the country.
