Press conference about Hamas hostages interrupted by air raid sirens

A press conference held in Tel Aviv with the families of Hamas hostages was interrupted by air raid sirens.

Crowds of people gathered on Thursday October 26 to hear from relatives of some of the over 200 people taken prisoner by Hamas in Gaza.

While one of the relatives was talking on stage, sirens started to sound and people immediately looked for shelter.

A few minutes later, explosions were seen over buildings in Tel Aviv as the Iron Dome was striking down what looked like two missiles.
