Guest article by Etgar Keret: In the fog of rocket impacts

JThe longer Israel’s war with Iran drags on, the less I understand it. The information is constantly bombarding me. Reports, comments and recordings from the site of the hit… – I mean, the bombing… – or was the rocket intercepted? If you’re in the Telegram group “News Before Anyone”, you’ll hear everything. And that can be quite confusing. I play the same clip over and over again, trying to figure out whether the destroyed building next to the burning car is in Ness Ziona or Tehran. Am I looking at a bombed-out Iranian Basij militia base? Rocket debris piercing a synagogue roof? Or a campfire at the Israeli army speakers’ retreat? After three weeks of war, the fog has only become thicker.
