Dawn broke over northern Israel on Sunday to the sound of rocket alarms and explosions, shaking residents from their sleep across the entire area. Residents from the Golan Heights to Akko woke into a harsh reality that has become all too familiar to evacuated northern communities facing daily attacks.

“For ten months now, we have been enduring dozens and hundreds of barrages almost daily. So far, there has been almost no significant response,” Matan Davidian told  The Press Service of Israel. Davidian is a resident of Shlomi, an Israeli town about 100 meters away from the Lebanese border. Davidian is also the leader of the “Fighting for the North” campaign.

Although the town was evacuated in October, some families risked returning home due to the unbearable conditions of cramped hotel rooms. Because of the Sunday morning barrage, the town became even quieter, and a planned funeral event was canceled.
