Traveling the Red Zone, Part C (Nitzan caravilla)

Traveling the Red Zone, Part C
Children's Shelters, Cement Blocks
(Due to the amount of photographs, this article will be sent in several parts.)
Park bomb shelter


These cement blocks were placed in parks throughout Nitzan so while you're enjoying time-out with your children you have a place to run to out of the line of fire within 30 seconds.
The buildings are not security against a direct hit, but to protect from shrapnel.
In the largest park, the sidewalk was damaged so people have to use caution when running to the shelter since several people have twisted their leg/ ankle while trying to escape incoming Kassams.
