She had been dreaming of studying in Israel for years and, after much consideration, her parents decided to support their daughter&#8217;s decision in April.<\/p>\n<p>Cohen recently found herself staying at a hotel in Southern Israel after nights of Iran and Israel exchanging <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/iran-israel-retaliatory-strikes-missile-attack-nuclear-program\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">missiles<\/a><\/span>, her mother told CBS News from New York.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They were running back and forth to bomb shelters in Tel Aviv,&#8221; said Marnie Cohen, who had booked return flights for her daughter to Barcelona, then onward to the United States.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As of Wednesday, at least 24 people have been killed by Iranian missiles that slipped through Israel&#8217;s robust air defenses, according to Israeli officials. The U.S.-based Human Rights Activists in Iran organization, which relies on a network of contacts in the country, said Tuesday that it had documented at least 452 deaths in Iran since Israel launched its attacks.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/iran-israel-war-us-trump-nuclear-sites-risk-all-out-war\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">said<\/a><\/span>\u00a0Wednesday he had not yet decided whether the U.S. military would join Israel&#8217;s ongoing attacks on Iran. Sources told CBS News Mr. Trump has\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-attack-plans-iran-no-final-decision\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">approved<\/a><\/span> attack plans on the country, but a final decision to strike had yet to be made.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Embassy in Israel on Wednesday announced it was working on <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/us-embassy-israel-evacuations-american-citizens\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">putting together evacuation flights and cruise ships<\/a><\/span> for American citizens wishing to leave the country, but the State Department later said it had &#8220;no announcement about assisting private U.S. citizens to depart at this time.&#8221;\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After Israel&#8217;s airspace closed, Birthright Onward moved around 300-400 students out of Tel Aviv, and parents started to explore alternatives to get their children out of the country, Marnie Cohen said. It is not clear how many students are currently in Israel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/birthrightisrael.foundation\/blog\/the-cost-of-a-priceless-trip-to-israel-for-jewish-young-adults\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Birthright aims<\/a> to bring 50,000 Jewish young adults, a portion of whom attend the Onward program, to Israel every year. CBS News reached out to Birthright for comment on how they are assisting U.S. citizens on their tours currently stranded in Israel, but did not receive responses before publication.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Cohen said her daughter&#8217;s roommate exited through Jordan, taking a car to the capital of Amman and flying from there to the United States. Other students took a boat to nearby Cyprus and are waiting for flights there. Still, Marnie Cohen said, even though her daughter knew of the danger, she didn&#8217;t want to leave.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lauren Field arrived in Israel from Connecticut the day before the conflict started \u2014 and a few days before the U.S. raised its <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/map-travel-advisory-us-state-department\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">travel advisory<\/a><\/span> for Israel to Level 4, the highest level \u2014 to visit her 20-year-old son studying in Tel Aviv.

She said she hadn&#8217;t heard yet from the federal government but had been in touch with local legislators and nonprofits.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She said her son had mixed feelings about leaving Israel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Field, who visited Israel once before in 1990, said even with the uncertainty everyone is facing, she and her family felt fairly safe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve met the most amazing, wonderful people and feel more connected than we ever have,&#8221; Field said.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"chartbeat\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation component--type-recirculation-collection\">\n<div class=\"component__heading-wrapper\">\n<h3 class=\"component__title\">Crisis in the Middle East<br \/>\n                          <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/feature\/gaza-conflict\/?intcid=CNI-00-10aaa3a\" class=\"component__view-more component__view-more--lg\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n                More<br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"icon__caret-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                  <use xlink:href=\"#icon-caret-down\"\/>\n                <\/svg><br \/>\n              <\/a><br \/>\n                      <\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/cara-tabachnick\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Cara  Tabachnick<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Cara Tabachnick is a news editor at CBSNews.com.
