The Jewish year ended much as it began with an unprecedented attack on Israel intended to cause maximum casualties,

but after one year of war, Israel was prepared. This is in no way a regular Russia Shahna,

Eve, we will talk about everything that has been happening, and we will also bring you some strength and resilience

with two conversations that will bring a smile to your face.

It's Unholy. I'm Unite Levy of Channel 12 in Tel Avid.

And I'm Jonathan Friedland of The Guardian in London.

It's Unholy, two Jews on the news. Should we admit the truth, which is you and I had already prepared, recorded, it was in

the can, a special episode for Russia Shana when the phones started going late afternoon, early evening Israel time, with these alerts, with these messages, sending the whole population really into their shelters, their safe rooms as Israel came under Iranian attack.

I mean, so, you know, Yoni, you lived through it. We were communicating as it was

happening. You were broadcasting to the nation as it was happening. Just, I mean, talk us through it.

I mean, look, I, you know, I've been in the news business for two decades, so I know how to

sum things up in headlines. Let's say this. First of all, the good news is that Israel's aerial

defense capabilities withstood this unprecedented

attack, that Israel's allies stepped up yet again, and that the Israeli public was very, very

careful and listened to the Homefront Command.

The bad news is that Iran had the ability and dexterity and audacity to attack Israel directly with more than 180 missiles.

So I think that is what we should talk about.

And you talked about how this was unfolding.

I would want to kind of explain and talk about how that felt, but you have to kind of

compare it to what happened in April, the first Iranian attack to understand the difference.

And I remind you then, hundreds of projectiles were launched towards Israel, but it was drones,

ballistic missiles and cruise missiles.
