Israeli Communities within Range of Rocket Fire - Emergency Instructions for Civilian Population
The firing of rockets at Israeli communities surrounding the Gaza Strip is expected to continue over the next few days, and may expand to additional area. Therefore, residents are requested to follow directions for preparing a protected room and act in accordance with the instructions at the sound of an alarm, an explosion, or a "Color Red" alert.
Residents of villages adjacent to the security fence are asked to remain within shelters tomorrow, in close proximity to protected areas, and are requested not to assemble in groups.
All schools and commercial centers will remain closed, with the exception of vital services, such as medical centers, grocery stores and public transit will operate on a limited schedule.
Residents in the rest of the villages within range of up to ten km of the Gaza security fence are directed to ensure that they are no more than
fifteen seconds from a protected area. Public gatherings in this perimeter are forbidden.
Residents of towns in the range of ten to twenty kilometers from Gaza, must be able to enter sheltered areas within thirty seconds. This area includes the cities of Ashkelon, Netivot and the surrounding towns. In these towns, gatherings of up to 100 people are allowed to be held only under reinforced ceilings. Commercial activity will only be allowed to take place in reinforced buildings.
Residents of towns in the range of twenty to thirty kilometers from Gaza, must be able to enter sheltered areas within forty-five seconds, and gatherings of up to 500 people are allowed to be held only under reinforced ceilings.. This area includes the cities of Ashdod, Kiryat Gat, Kiryat Mal'achi, Ofakim, Rahat, and the surrounding towns. Educational activity will take place in reinforced buildings only. Commercial activity will only be allowed to take place in reinforced buildings.
A number of important issues for the population:
The Home Front command has advised the local authorities to open the public shelters. Entrance to the shelters is advised only if they are reachable within the aforementioned time frames.
Gatherings near rocket attack sites should be avoided. Unidentified objects and rockets should not be approached. In such instances the police should be notified.
Adhering to these guidelines and entering sheltered rooms - saves lives.
Additional information can be obtained via the Home Front Command's hot line 1207 and website: www.oref.org.il.
