“The drone hit exactly where we had been,” says
kindergarten teacher.
A miracle occurred
in Haifa. The Hezbollah drone wanted to harm people, even children. Hezbollah’s
aim is to kill every Jew but sometimes, a miracle occur.
An explosive
drone launched by the Hezbollah terror group struck a Haifa-area
kindergarten on Tuesday morning, causing damage to the property but no injuries
to children or staff.
Footage from the scene circulating on social media
showed damage to the facility’s outdoor play area, the building itself, and
that the kindergarten’s windows had been shattered by the blast.
“We had a miracle of miracles,” Sarah Yasour, a
teacher at the preschool, told Hebrew-language news outlets.
Yasour said that she had been in the outdoor play area
with the children shortly before the explosive drone impacted.
She noted that no alarms had sounded in Nesher, a
community on the outskirts of Haifa where the kindergarten is located.
But, Yasour noted, she and other staffers heard sirens
coming from nearby areas and decided to move the children into the facility’s
bomb shelter as a precaution.
“We heard a very distant siren… and said ‘alright
let’s go inside,’” Yasour recounted.
Just a few seconds after all the children were in the
shelter, “we suddenly heard a huge noise and understood it must be close,” she
said.
“Only when we got out did we realize the scale of the
miracle. [The drone] hit exactly where we had been.”
While Israel’s Iron Dome intercepts the vast majority
of projectiles fired from Lebanon, explosive drones have proved to be a
challenge for air defense system.
Because drones fly
at a low altitude – literally under the radar – they aren’t always
detected by Israel’s air defenses.
