Neighbor’s immediate family, my own close friend, and the entire family of a family member’s much-loved friend. On all sides of the war. Hearing from people in 3 different countries hearing bombs and missiles. Kept awake, stuck in shelters for whole day, afraid for self and family, some are unable to communicate with their family directly. Some are ‘sitting ducks’ when anti-missile arsenal runs out, which i hear is getting to be a problem.

Crazy to hear a similar reality coming from such different sources.
