A couple frantically scrambled to locate their children in Ramat Gan Saturday afternoon as sirens blasted across the Israeli skies.<\/p>\n
“It\u2019s all day long like this, we woke up and it\u2019s like alert alert alert,” Israeli citizen Anat Tabachnik told The Post Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n
Tabachnik was with her boyfriend Nadav Kaidar in Israel’s Ramat Gan when sirens broke out, she rushed to pick up her daughter, 17, in the country’s northern countryside as Kaider fled to rescue his 5-year-old son.<\/p>\n
“I felt really really anxious, I got my daughter and just ran,” Tabacknik, 45, said. “We went to a shelter in a tunnel in the roads. We rushed in a tunnel we just stood there.<\/p>\n
“It\u2019s like really scary, I keep shaking all the time. I feel like \u201cOh god I don\u2019t know, we\u2019ve got work, we\u2019ve got life and we just have to stop.”<\/p>\n
As Tabachnik was speaking to The Post, rocket sirens could be heard blaring along with the sound of explosions in the background from Iranian airstrikes.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo many booms, oh my God,\u201d Tabachnik feared.<\/p>\n
