Khaberni - As the "zero hour" for the anticipated American attack on Iran approaches, the strategic areas in the occupied entity have witnessed an unprecedented mobilization.
According to Israeli media, municipalities in major cities, including Tel Aviv, Be'er Sheva, and Dimona, began opening public shelters and preparing them, in a clear indication of serious concerns about a direct Iranian missile response that might target economic centers, military bases, and sensitive facilities.
Tel Aviv and Be'er Sheva: Preparations for Missile Warfare
In Tel Aviv, the economic center of the occupation, the municipality announced the opening of shelters in all neighborhoods, with strict instructions distributed to residents about the "response time" to warning sirens.
This preparedness is due to assessments that any American attack would be met by an Iranian attempt to strike the "beating heart" of the occupation to achieve a deterrent balance.
In Be'er Sheva, considered the gateway to the south and home to vital command centers and air bases like "Hatzor," readiness in fortified shelters has been elevated to the maximum level.
Sources indicate that the army expects the south to be targeted with intensive missile barrages, either from inside Iran or through long-range missiles, making Be'er Sheva a pivotal area in the internal defense plan.
Dimona: Protecting the Reactor and Surrounding Areas
The preparations in Dimona take on a critically important and sensitive nature, due to the presence of the nuclear reactor there. Shelters have been opened for residents in tandem with enhancements to air defense systems (such as Patriot and Arrow) in the vicinity of the city.
The security agencies fear that Tehran might opt for a "symbolic or retaliatory strike" towards Dimona in response to any American targeting of its nuclear facilities.
Summary of Preparedness in the Three Cities:
Tel Aviv: Opening of public shelters and securing metro stations as shelter areas.
Be'er Sheva: Mobilization at surrounding air bases and preparation of shelters in residential areas.
Dimona: Tightening of air defense surveillance and opening shelters for residents to face any significant missile threat.
The shift of Tel Aviv, Be'er Sheva, and Dimona to a "shelter opening" status indicates that the occupation is not merely bracing for an American attack, but is also preparing for a costly price that may be exacted deep within its cities.
As coordination continues with "CENTCOM," these settlements remain in a state of bated breath, awaiting what the coming hours might bring, potentially turning these shelters into havens for millions of residents fearing the fires coming from the East.
According to Israeli media, the settlements of Ofakim in the south and Ra'anana north of Tel Aviv have decided to open public shelters, and the settlement of Kiryat Gat in the south opens its public shelters.
The Hebrew channel Kan reported that the opening of shelters in some settlements was decided by the heads of the settlements and not by the Home Front Command, and most municipalities that opened shelters are in the southern and central regions.
