Aviv Gefen concert to take place in Tel Aviv park despite rocket threats

Musician Aviv Geffen will hold his annual rock ball event at Tel Aviv’s Hayarkon Park on Thursday night, despite the ongoing Operation Shield and Arrow and the rocket barrage fired at Israel by Palestinian Islamic Jihad over the past two days.

However, those who had purchased tickets to the show were sent a message the day before, instructing them how to proceed in case the rocket siren sounded during the outdoor event.

The message read, “If the red alert sounds during the show, you must lie on the ground and protect your head with your hands.” “You should lie on the ground for 10 minutes.”

The message also instructed event-goers to stay where they should when the siren sounds, and to avoid overcrowding and overcrowding at exit points to reduce injuries.
