6:00 am wake up Alert

Israel
June 8, 2026 3:57am CST
Here in Jerusalem, we were woken up by a loud beep beep on the phone. Then at 6:20 there was another one followed by a siren. I was out with the dog on his morning walk, and followed some other people into a shelter, Dor, the dog was very well behaved and sat down and waited with about 10 other people, including young children. Nobody spoke much, as they were all tired. After about 10 minutes I left and walked home. Nothing was destroyed in my neighborhood in Israel. So we don't have school today, and tomorrow we will be on Zoom, or Google Meet to teach. A Chines curse: May you live in interesting times. . .

I remember this Chinese curse, but I do not consider our actual time "interesting", it's just disgusting.

I can't imagine. Glad you're safe and no damage was caused.

I imagine there are many Iranians posting somewhere on forums saying Bombed by Israel
