refuah shelameh. give us her name for tehillim.
I wonder if there is any heiter for a journalist or reporter to expose himself / herself to danger just for parnossa or to write a story or report a story for the evening news.
Mos ymos.
So who told her to be there?
I care more about the kids in Sderot than A high priced ‘rerporter’ who is there because she wants to be there. It must look good on her resume.
JNF built a an underground playground / bomb shelter for the children that have no other place to be. I prayers go out to them and all the other prople that live in Sderot.
