The IDF’s Homefront Command plans to distribute a pamphlet to residents of Gaza-area communities on Sunday telling them what to do in case of a rocket attack. The pamphlet will be distributed to residents of communities located 7-20 kilometers from Gaza. Residents of communities located within seven kilometers of Gaza have already received instructions.
The pamphlets include advice on how to pick a room to run to during an attack and which radio stations to listen to for the “Color Red” rocket attack warning. The pamphlet also emphasizes the importance of the family unit and calls on parents to discuss the attacks with their children. “Talk about the rockets, which are built with an empty pipe and explosives and can cause damage to buildings and people if they are not in a secure location. Likewise, bring examples of people whose lives were saved when they followed the instructions,” the pamphlet recommends.
