Residents are concerned in Petah Tikva and central cities, reporting Arabs who are filming the buildings and entrances to homes. Hundreds of posts on Facebook report these incidents and tag the Israeli police.
Also the journalist Avri Gilad published this morning that he saw Arabs filming the building where he resides in North Tel Aviv. Here's what he wrote:
"Listen, I don't want to add to the fire, but in recent days, Arabs are wandering around my neighborhood in North Tel Aviv and filming houses. Today, three were stopped, and yesterday, two. They were released, of course, Israeli citizens. What's wrong with photographing houses? There are similar reports from many places in the Gush Dan region. There are some very disturbing testimonies that something is brewing. I have a feeling that we are so shocked and still naive. We don't understand that maybe it's not over; perhaps it's just beginning. Perhaps the modus operandi in the Gaza Strip is being adopted by the armed criminal society that has emerged in Arab society. They will go from house to house. Why are they filming houses? Is it for an album of Israeli cities?"
Try to get weapons at any cost
Avri Gilad describes with pain that the people are unprepared, and there is an obligation get organized with weapons. "We are not prepared, not at the city level, not at the neighborhood level, not even at the home level. We have about ten tin cans of corn in the bomb shelter. That's about it. We need to get organized today to defend the streets and homes. To instruct all gun owners. To try to obtain weapons at any cost. If possible, set up checkpoints at the entrances to neighborhoods with armed guards. Train together with the neighbors. Get to know them first."
Gilad warns that enemy exercises are not an innocent matter. "It might be that nothing will happen, but it's better to be highly prepared. A minority in the Arab community with ISIS beliefs and NATO weapons can turn against us tomorrow morning. They have been training seriously for a long time. We need to learn from the intelligence experience - when they train, it's not just to fill their free time. These are practical preparations."
The post received thousands of shares and ignited comments from various perspectives.
