How sonic booms act as reminders for a traumatized population Since the beginning of the war, Israel has relied on deploying sonic booms across various parts of the south, and most recently, Beirut. This form of psychological warfare has acted as reminders for citizens of the region of the trauma they experienced on August 4, during the 2006 war, and for older residents, during the civil war. This reel will aim to spotlight this struggle in a short video, explaining how Israel has historically used psychological warfare in its past wars with the country, and how to deal with the sonic booms as they come.
