A Miraculous Morning In Tel Aviv
Dear Editor:
I am a living witness to the attack on the center of Tel Aviv yesterday morning at 4 a.m. I was staying in a safe room with three other women, pretty much as close as one could be to the direct hit. It’s very important that you understand the following:
