Accoucher dans un abri en Israël
It's a little girl, born by cesarean section. "She's beautiful!" exclaims a midwife, handing her to her mother for a first kiss. "She is!" replies Sarah, 38, with a radiant smile.
Yitzhak, her husband, who looked anxious throughout the delivery, finally relaxed and explained that the couple would wait a week to name the baby.
Sarah and Yitzhak were welcomed a few hours earlier by the director of the obstetrics unit at Mount Carmel Medical Center, Reuven Kedar.
They were taken to the hospital's shelter, carved into the mountain overlooking Haifa, on which the hospital is located. On average, ten babies are born there every day, according to Clalit, the country's main healthcare provider and manager of the hospital.
In total, 370 newborns have been born there since the start of the war, which began on February 28 with US-Israeli strikes on Iran, which retaliated by firing towards Israel.
Certainly, on this Thursday, April 9, a fragile ceasefire was in effect the day before between the United States and Iran, and no Iranian missile had been fired at Israel.
But in Haifa, still reeling from Sunday's attack on a building that killed four people, the sirens continue to sound. The shelling by the Lebanese Islamist movement Hezbollah, an ally of Tehran, has not ceased.
Israel considers that Lebanon is not covered by the truce and the day before carried out deadly bombings on its neighbor which killed more than 300 people.
In total, more than 20 rocket alerts were sounded on Thursday in northern Israel, bordering Lebanon.
