Sorry @YWN but there were no sirens in Jerusalem, they were near Jerusalem. Look on the Tzohar app. You guys are the greatest fear mongers, catchy headlines with cut and pastes from other websites and you get excited when Fox News uses your picture! You also got pumped when the would be assassin contacted you about Ukraine. You guys seriously need attention. Stop spreading panic. Imagine the feeling of the parents of hundreds of Yeshiva guys and Sem girls seeing such a headline! “Is my daughter safe?” “Did I make a mistake sending this year, 30k” “should she come home?” You guys can feel good that it’s due to your fear mongering that people have left Israel many times. Count how many times you guys wrote “escalation” when in reality it was one war on the borders affecting mostly border towns and Thank G-D Jerusalem has been pretty quiet. No one knows what will be, but you guys lost your legitimacy and should apologize and start over. You need to focus on news and not catchy headlines.
Thank you
@forsight – You’re right that no yerushalayim sirens went off.
But sirens were heard in yerushalayim. Source – I live in neve yaakov and heard them.
FORSIGHT is totally correct.
HOPE YWN pays attention and improves.
@uko I am aware of the fact that in Neve Yaakov you heard sirens in the distance coming from the Binyamin region. Don’t forget Mitzpe yericho is a short drive from Jerusalem, but sirens didn’t go off here. That is a fact that YWN must reckon with and not just spread fear through catchy headlines. It pains so many people and they don’t stop.
