Nelson Castro showed what Tel Aviv looks like today after the end of the war.
The journalist broadcast live from the city of Batiam, where the effects of the bombings are still evident
On Wednesday morning, journalist Nelson Castro broadcast live for Arriba Argentinos from Bat Yam, a city located south of Tel Aviv, where the effects of the bombings that marked the recent war between Israel and Iran are still evident. Although the conflict officially ceased just a few hours ago, the scenario shown by the Argentine reporter reveals that peace is, for now, only a fragile promise.
In a striking tour through the devastated streets, Castro described scenes that sum up the magnitude of the confrontation between both countries. Collapsed buildings, debris blocking access points, and militarized streets were the setting encountered by the news cameras. "These aren't shrapnel, the missile fell here", the anchor emphasized, pointing to the visible traces of the impact that shook Bat Yam's residents.

During the live broadcast, the presence of Israeli soldiers working tirelessly to assess the damage to structures and rule out the presence of unexploded ordnance was also evident. As part of their tasks, the military personnel completely evacuated the area to prevent further incidents and safeguard the civilian population. "The situation is very delicate, fear can be felt among the neighbors, and the soldiers' work is key to restoring calm in such a difficult moment," Nelson Castro stated in his report.
The truce after a 12-day war that kept the region on edge
The end of hostilities between Israel and Iran came after 12 days of intense bombings that left a trail of destruction in various parts of Israeli territory. The truce was made official after Iranian President Masud Pezeshkian declared that his country had achieved a ceasefire thanks to the "heroic resistance of the great Iranian nation", in his own words.

Even so, the evidence shown by the Arriba Argentinos correspondent confirms that reconstruction won't be immediate. The scene captured by the journalist in Bat Yam is only part of a story that includes many other affected areas and that will require international assistance to fully recover.
