ing; this is my home; this is where
I belong." She touches the
ground; she kisses her fingers.
Ms. Zafrani, a religious woman
who wears a kerchief over her
hair, has no ideological or Zion-
istic reason why she won't budge
— she's just rooted to the place.
She has nothing against those
who've headed for safer parts.
"May they live and be healthy,"
she says.
The radio is playing in the
shelter — music and news.
Spirits seem pretty high. At
the municipality building,
Michael Ohayon, another rooted
veteran of Kiryat Shemonah,
says, "The best thing that hap-
pened was that so many people
left town. If not, the shelters
would have been crowded with
people, and the pressure would
have been like an atom bomb."
Rooted or not, people are
jumpy at 274 Yehuda Halevi. A
soft explosion goes offin the dis-
tance, and people say, "There's
another Katyusha," and anybody
standing outside the shelter scur-
ries in. A local nurse and social
worker come to check on people,
and when another explosion is
heard, a few people shout, in-
cluding the social worker, who
says, 'That's another Katyusha.
Everybody inside."
Rumors spread fast. A man
down the street says he heard the
last Katyusha fell near the town
swimming pool. Another man
says it fell at the other end of
town.
One of the Katyushas, as it
turned out, struck an apartment
building in another neighbor-
hood. No one was injured, be-
cause no one was inside the
upper-floor apartment where the
rocket hit. On the sixth day of
"Grapes of Wrath," there were
few hittable human targets left
in Kiryat Shmonah — nearly
everyone was out of town or
underground. After nearly three
decades of Katyushas, you
learn. ❑
