A group of Americans visiting Israel were prevented from leaving Friday, as the military strike against Iran and the subsequent retaliatory effort locked down the nation's airports.
CNN's Scott Jennings posted videos of Israeli war planes flying over his hotel on Thursday evening and shared what was happening on the ground.
'Definitely not getting out today. Lol,' Jennings told the Daily Mail on Friday from his hotel in Tiberius, on the shore of the Sea of Galilee.
'From my hotel balcony I watched jets streaming over head headed west to east,' he detailed in text messages.
Jennings said he was monitoring emergency alerts that came through on his phone but 'didn't feel in danger initially.'
