When a missile landed close to his home in Ramat Gan, near Tel Aviv, on Thursday, Omri was miles away, sheltering at his partner's family house in northern Israel.
"Our building is old and has no shelter so we drove to her parents' house, where there's a safe room, but it's frightening every time we leave the house,"[i] Omri told Middle East Eye.
The city of Ramat Gan and other areas near Tel Aviv have been the site of multiple Iranian retaliatory attacks since Israel started its military campaign on Iran a week ago.
On Thursday, Iran launched a barrage of 30 ballistic missiles at Israel, causing extensive damage in the country's centre and south, where a missile struck the Soroka hospital in Beersheba. In Ramat Gan, damage was reported at the Israeli stock exchange building and several nearby offices and residential buildings. More than 200 people were wounded that day, according to local media.
[i]"I'm in a condition that a lot of people can envy. I have a safe room, but I wouldn't want to be in this situation for much longer," Omri said
"I don't think we can stand the current situation much longer."
Another resident of Ramat Gan, whose home was struck by a missile, described the scene as similar to "an apocalypse."
"I hadn't slept at all for several days, so I didn’t wake up when the siren went off," the resident said, speaking to Israeli newspaper Haaretz.
"Just before I reached the safe room, the missile struck, and I was hit in the shoulder by the force of the blast."
...
"I'm not afraid for my own life, but for the people close to me," he told MEE. "A few days ago, a missile hit near my parents' house. The whole area was covered in shattered glass, their window was blown out. It's scary."
"Life here is a nightmare," he continued. "I guess I'll move abroad. This isn't a place to raise children."
...
"The government, the opposition, and the Knesset are steering us toward an uncertain future - and all this while captives remain in Gaza and soldiers continue to be killed."
