Both were in a safe room during the Iranian strikes, which were largely unsuccessful, but that doesn't erase the worry. "When we were talking on FaceTime I could hear the sirens," said Treatman. "I'm very proud of them because they remained calm, as did most people in Israel."Maryam Vafa also worries for her family in Iran."There's always so much negative press about Iran. But the people of Iran are different from the government," she said."The people of Iran are a peace-loving people," Vafa said. "They don't want war.
