Day's update

So far so, well, not SO bad. Outer roads are blocked and the airport is closed. UNRWA was open again , though most people could not get there. All schools were closed. The area where we live (Hamra) is safer than most, there are no political hotspots here. About half the shops are open, but with roads into the city cut off one wonders how long supplies will last. Let me remind fans that if it comes to it, we would be evacuated by sea (a short walk--near Tom's school) and thus the aiport closure is not a worry.

Hmm...does the fighting stop when the call to prayer rings out?
