Sounds of War

We've been hearing booms but of a different sort for most of the evening. They are not the usual katyusha-explosion sounds. Now that we're back in the apartment, I can actually feel it trembling once in a while. The windows, which are old, rattle in the frames. But this is another sound that we have to get used to - this war for me has been felt primarily through sounds. As I write, the rumbling/trembling sounds continue and the apartment shakes intermittently.

This is IDF artillery. It is kind of scary, although it's not too loud. It's amazing that we can hear it. It's probably 30-40 km away or so.

Don't worry....
