If I were to guess the primary concern of those leaving it would probably be to go some place that doesn't regularly have rockets fired at it

I mean, haven't they always had rockets fired at them? Why would there be an increase in emigration then? Are there more rockets than before?

There are far more in times of active conflict like now, including rockets from places like Iran and Yemen, people especially those with resources don't want to hear sirens in their cosmipolitan city, they don't want to go hide in a bomb shelter in their basement even if it's unlikely they won't get hit
