During Pesach many Israelis had to hold their seders in bomb shelters. Before the festival there were reports of weddings being held in bomb shelters, and at the start of the war, there were Purim celebrations. Soldiers serving in Lebanon read the Megillah Esther in their bunker.
But Israeli resilience, does little to stop the Iranian missiles coming in – and sometimes, even the Iron Dome can’t catch them.
In Haifa, early on Monday morning, days after Miriam celebrated her birthday in the shelter, four people were confirmed dead after a building was destroyed in a strike.

After rescue attempts, the bodies were recovered from the rubble including a man in his 40s, a woman in her 30s, and two others.
Advanced technological tools, including phone tracking, were used to find the location of those trapped under the rubble, but they were already dead by the time they were recovered.
The IDF had attempted to intercept the incoming missile, but it broke apart early in flight and scattered pieces across Haifa, according to the Jerusalem Post.
Magen David Adom Director-General Eli Bin said that at least three people were being treated for injuries caused by the shrapnel. At least four others were being treated for anxiety-related symptoms, according to a report in the Jerusalem Post.
