Following Iran’s missile attack on Israel, an emotional scene from Tel Aviv has gone viral—a video of a scared dog being pulled from the wreckage of a destroyed building has taken social media by storm.
The viral video shared online shows a man carefully bringing the big, puffy dog to safety through the rubble and destroyed buildings. Others stand by or help around them, highlighting the frightened and tense environment.
Trapped Dog Recused Safely
Israel’s rescue crew rescued a scared dog from a destroyed Tel Aviv building. Relieved she’s safe now,” a user commented, while posting the video. Another one commented, “Israel’s rescue troops rescued a dog from a destroyed building in Tel Aviv. She was cowering, a poor creature. I’m relieved she’s safe now. Dogs are experiencing so much trauma in Israel due to the explosions and sirens. My heart out to these poor animals.
The video surfaced after Iran’s reprisal against Israeli attacks on its military and nuclear facilities, with missiles hitting areas of Tel Aviv and the surrounding region. While explosions rocked the city, the majority of residents stormed communal or in-residence bomb shelters.
Rescue missions shortly commenced, with teams sent out to look for individuals and animals stuck beneath rubble. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) tweeted on X, previously Twitter, “We would rather not be tweeting the same thing many times in a day, but millions of Israelis keep running to shelter as Iran keeps shooting more ballistic missiles at Israel.”
