Jerusalem newlyweds forced to have first dance in underground bunker as Iran rains missiles on Israel
In a poignant display of love amidst turmoil, a video featuring two newlyweds sharing their first dance in an underground bunker has captivated audiences online. This moment unfolded in Jerusalem as tensions escalated between Israel and Hezbollah, coinciding with Iran's launch of nearly 200 ballistic missiles aimed at Israel on Tuesday.
The heartwarming footage, which quickly gained traction on the social media platform X, shows the couple swaying gently in a cramped, dimly lit shelter while their wedding guests record the scene. Dressed in their wedding attire, the couple embraced, moving together to music played from a guest's cellphone. The groom lovingly twirled his bride, who lifted her long, white lace gown.
The touching moment was captured in a bunker located near the Notre Dame Hotel, one of Jerusalem's largest hotels. Bible scholar and author Saul Sadka, who originally shared the video, remarked, "Iran couldn't stop the joy at this Jerusalem wedding even for a moment," accompanying his post with a heart emoji.
