In the midst of military missiles and warnings, Guatemalan shares his testimony from Israel

Rebeca Permuth lives closely the conflict between Israel and Iran, because when it was enlisted to address a plane back to Guatemala, the authorities ordered the closure of airspace, because minutes before the Israeli army had attacked nuclear facilities in Tehran.

“The morning of Friday, June 13, I was at Ben Gurión airport, in Israel, ready to board my flight to Guatemala. Around 4.00, they closed the airport and canceled all the flights,” Permuth wrote in a text message.

It is currently protected in a shelter from a hotel in Tel Aviv, the main white of Iranian reprisals and where, according to local media, there were “several impacts” in the area, after they will launch a third wave of missiles against Israeli territory.

“We got lodging in a hotel in Tel Aviv, where I have already lost the account of how many times the sirens have sounded due to the drones and missiles that Iran has launched in retaliation for this operation (…) carried out by Israel. Every time the alarms sound, we have less than two minutes to run and take refuge in the safety room with another 40 people,” he added.

He said that the Israeli army issued an important warning to its citizens regarding communications on missile attacks.

He pointed out that the military authorities specifically request that the population refrain from mentioning or sharing the exact locations where projectiles fall, even in private communications such as WhatsApp or telephone calls.

This precaution is based on advanced technological abilities that allow hostile forces to intercept and analyze communications to adjust their objectives.

He indicated that when citizens massively comment on the location of an impact, they inadvertently provide valuable information that allows attackers to calibrate their aiming systems for future releases.

The interviewee described the “surprising” resilience of the Israelis, who, despite the threat of drones or missiles, continued with their daily activities in an orderly manner, even enjoying the beach.

He explained that citizens have learned to live with this reality as part of their daily lives.

He also mentioned that Israel has managed to eliminate several members of the Iranian regime dome, which he described as sponsor of terrorism that systematically violates the rights of his own people and constantly threatens to destroy Israel.

Permuth added that the airspace must be kept closed because drones can pass under the radar, which represents a constant threat.
