was arguing with her teenage son on Tuesday evening about whether or not it was safe to leave the house
He was wanting to meet friends, while she was concerned about reports that Iran was about to launch ballistic missiles at Israel
“Suddenly someone called me and said ‘please stay home’,” she recalled in an interview. “Something terrible has happened
That evening, two men had opened fire on a busy tram in a knife and gun attack that left seven people dead, as well as the two assailants. Minutes later, Iran launched the promised missile attack
sending Kay and her family scrambling into the safe room that is built into most flats in the neighbourhood’s newer buildings for just that eventuality
Millions of Israelis across the country took to bunkers on Wednesday evening to avoid the bombardment, in which Iran launched an estimated 180 missiles – the most unleashed in a single night against Israel since the 7 October attacks by Hamas and the beginning of the war in Gaza

Some in the neighbourhood said they had been simultaneously told to barricade themselves in their flats
and go to local bunkers to shelter from the incoming missile strike
But by the time the missiles were launched

the terror attack was “much more scary than the Iranians”
“It’s your worst nightmare because you’ve got no control.”
“It’s a feeling of that real intrusion into a place which has been quiet and had a feeling of togetherness,” she said of Jaffa
a mixed Arab-Jewish part of the city that has hosted pro-peace demonstrations
The couple had sent Ari to a mixed daycare centre and the family was close with an Arab member of staff there
“A lot of the Jews that live in Jaffa have pride in the coexistence of the Jews and Arabs living together in the same place,” said Dror
“It’s a real shame that it happens to people who are trying to create a community life of everyone together.”
The attack there came the day before Rosh Hashanah
a holiday that marks the beginning of the high holy days in the Jewish religion
the day of atonement on which most Jews fast and seek forgiveness
the neighbourhood was like a ghost town,” Kay said
were wishing each other a better year than the last – a traditional holiday greeting made more poignant by the dark events of the past year
Across the country, there was a sense of apprehension on Wednesday as Israel vowed to retaliate against Iran for the missile strike, potentially continuing a cycle of attacks that threatens to spiral into a regional war.
The effectiveness of the Israeli air defences meant that in many cases, the targeted missile strikes were thwarted. The only person known to have been killed in the attack was a 38-year-old man from Gaza who had been staying in a Palestinian security forces compound in the West Bank near Jericho when he was killed by falling missile debris.

Video showed some of the missiles veering towards populated areas

But largely they were either aimed at military bases or landed in unpopulated locations across the country
Photographs showed Palestinians inspecting an Iranian missile at a road junction in the West Bank city of Hebron

Israel has officially launched its first wave energy power plant
at the southern end of the Tel Aviv-Jaffa (Yafo) municipality
uses floating platforms with hydraulic pumps to convert the up-and-down motion of ocean waves into electricity
Tel Aviv-based Eco Wave Power (EWP) developed the technology behind the plant
each producing enough electricity to power 10 homes
The system was installed in September 2023 as a joint venture with EDF Renewables Israel
a subsidiary of the French energy giant EDF
and is already connected to Israel’s national electric grid
The installation was partly funded by Israel’s Ministry of Energy
which recognizes it as a “pioneering technology.”
only after optimal performance was reached through additional modifications and calibrations over the past year
Tel Aviv-Yafo Mayor Ron Huldai described the EWP installation as “a historic milestone in the country’s renewable energy progress.”
The power plant is located at the port’s Atarim Blue Economy Innovation Hub
Atarim is the municipal company that manages the Tel-Aviv-Yafo coastline between Herzliya and Bat Yam
The Tel Aviv-Yafo municipality said the launch marked “a significant step toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions and advancing sustainable energy
reinforcing Tel Aviv’s status as a global innovation leader.”
Wave energy provides a more reliable and consistent power source than solar or wind
simply because the sea is in constant motion
in part due to concerns over possible effects on marine ecosystems
The 100kW-capacity wave power plant at Jaffa Port converts wave motion into pressurized fluid
which drives turbines to generate clean electricity for coastal communities
a NASDAQ-listed company that holds 18 patents for innovative wave-energy technologies
piers and other existing marine structures
Smart controls lift the floaters out of the water during storms to prevent damage and automatically lower them again when the storm has subsided
This is EWP’s second wave power plant. The first was installed in Gibraltar in 2016, and just last month the company received the go-ahead for one at the Port of Los Angeles
Its first commercial station will be built in Porto
The Jaffa Port project is led by Inna Braverman
CEO at EWP and a graduate of the Women for Climate program that empowers women to lead environmental and sustainability projects addressing urban climate challenges
The Tel Aviv-Yafo municipality, through its Environmental and Sustainability Authority, is a member of C40
an international network of cities committed to reducing the effects of the climate crisis and greenhouse gas emissions

Two men reportedly opened fire and stabbed people on train and in nearby street before being shot dead
Six people were killed and 10 wounded in a shooting and knife attack on the Israeli seaside city of Jaffa that occurred minutes before Iran launched a huge missile attack on Israel. Five of the wounded were described as being in a serious condition.
CCTV footage showed two men, reportedly armed with an assault rifle and a knife, dressed in black emerging from a train near the light-rail stop along Jerusalem Boulevard where they opened fire on passersby as well as on a second nearby street.
Video in the aftermath of the attack showed a number of bodies slumped under the awning of the station, while one image shared on social media purported to show the men executing one of wounded as they lay on the ground.
According to one report, the attackers shot and stabbed passengers on the Tel Aviv light rail before continuing on foot and attacking people on Jerusalem Boulevard.
Two gunmen involved in the attack were killed by security forces while police hunted for a suspected third shooter, with nearby buildings going into lockdown. Reports suggested the two dead attackers were from Jaffa and the southern West Bank city of Hebron.
Israel’s ambulance service said it received a report at 7.01pm of people injured by gunfire. Medics and paramedics provided onsite medical treatment to a number of wounded people with varying degrees of injuries, including some who were unconscious, the paramedics said.
Earlier reports had suggested eight people had been killed but that was later revised to six by police.
Witnesses described the shooting to the Israeli media. “We were on the light-rail when we suddenly heard gunfire from outside,” one witness told the Jerusalem Post.
“At first, we thought it was fireworks, but then we realised it was something much worse. There were many gunshots. We dropped to the floor, and people were crying. I saw someone bleeding on the ground.”
“I saw crowds of people running and shouting ‘terror attack’,” added a nearby shop owner. “I quickly closed my shutters and locked up.”
Haaretz quoted several other witnesses. “I saw a terrorist shoot a girl who was on the floor and another girl, then I saw the terrorist shoot a man on a bicycle who fell to the floor, but I don’t think he wasn’t hurt. At that moment a civilian arrived with a gun and shot the terrorist.”
Another witness who was attending synagogue said that he heard shots from an automatic weapon. “Among the worshippers were medics who volunteer at the MDA [emergency response services]. We treated a man who was wounded in the synagogue and then ran to the street to help others who were wounded,” he said.
The Jewish high holidays begin on Wednesday with Rosh Hashanah – the Jewish new year – and end on 11 October, Yom Kippur. Israel had already been on high alert amid the conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon and rapidly growing tension with Iran, which has brought the countries to the very edge of full-scale war.
Video footage in the aftermath of the attack showed one of the two gunmen lying dead in the street surrounded by security forces amid questions over whether the shooting had been coordinated in any way to coincide with the Iranian missile strikes.
The shooting is the latest of a string of attacks that have occurred in Israel since October, both in the heavily populated central region and in more sparsely populated areas.
