If You Live 40km From Gaza, You Have 60 Seconds

I came across The Home Front Command, which has a special page with instructions to various cities within range of rockets being fired by Hamas into Israel--on what kinds of precautions to take.

Below is a map that divides cities into zones showing how much warning they have of incoming rockets, depending on how far they are from Gaza.
The fact that even Be'er Sheva is within range of Hamas is frightening.

The page gives directions, based on which zone the city falls into, on what procedures to follow.

Israellycool writes that Tel Aviv and Rishon Letzion are already preparing bomb shelters.
Meanwhile Muqata has posted a map indicating that Hamas rockets can travel as far as 60km into Israel.

Below is a list found on the left hand side of the page, giving links on how to act in certain kinds of emergencies. The last few might be found on a website on emergency situations in the US--but the first 3 are not:

One can only hope that the Israeli government knows what it is doing and has the wherewithal to finish off the job it has assigned for itself in defense of Israel, because it is already clear that the safety and security of Israel's citizens are not priorities of the world bodies who like to describe themselves as humanitarian.
