Terror in Tel Aviv: Six dead and chaos before rocket attack from Iran
In Tel Aviv, a dramatic situation was created when a terrorist attack and rocket attacks from Iran frightened the city on the early Tuesday evening. Witnesses report an intensive incident that has already requested six fatalities and at least 16 injuries. Renzo Giner, a journalist of El Comercio, was in the middle of this chaos and impressively describes the challenges and the rapidly changing location on site.
giner, who was on the way to an event to support Israeli soldiers, immediately experienced the events. Just two minutes after a change of shooting, he and his team arrived at the hotel, where they were initially shown to be safe. Shortly thereafter, the sirens of the alarm system sounded, which made an immediate evacuation necessary. "Everything happened so quickly that there was no space for fear," he describes the hectic atmosphere that prevailed at the moment.

The violence was soon reinforced by rocket attacks from Iran. Eyewitnesses reported numerous explosions when the Israeli military had to ward off over 180 rockets that were fired from Iran. According to reports from Tehran, this military reaction was intended as a retaliation measure for the recent killings of leading military of the Hisbollah and Hamas.
The force of the events did not leave Renzo Giner untouched. He described that the people who crowded in a shelter in the hotel were seriously affected. "It felt like it was in a real war zone," he said. The special shelter was robustly built, with thick walls and a safe door system, but people's fear was felt when the doors were closed and the reality of the situation was collapsed by the immediate threat in the heads.
Interestingly, the protection measures in Tel Aviv are not so different in Israel. While in the south of the country, where the rocket attacks are more common, many shelters are set up, citizens in Tel Aviv often have to fall back on the existing hotel accommodation, since immediate evacuation plans are not available across the board.The events have attracted internationally because they further tighten the unstable situation in the Middle East and heat the geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel. At the same time, security measures and the reaction of Israel's defense mechanisms, such as the iron Dome, are also critically evaluated because they have to decide on the efficiency in the face of such threats.
In summary, the situation in the region remains tense. Tel Aviv himself experienced, partly unexpectedly, the horrors of the war, while nations follow the situation carefully worldwide. In the middle of all of this remains the hope of peace in a region that is characterized by violence and conflicts.For more information about the events in Tel Aviv and the reactions to See the report on Elcomercio.PE .
