Konikov said he has family there who took shelter as alarms went off.
The rabbi also said a Chabad sister school north of Israel was destroyed in the attack, but no one was hurt or killed.
“All of a sudden they are running into shelter. So, it’s a little bit of its a scare but at the same time people are so positive. And they have a tremendous amount of trust and hope,” Konikov said.
A U.S. official told ABC News it is still too early to say whether the attack resulted in any serious damage.
