Question

Shalom, is it obligatory to go to a protected area during a siren?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha 

It is obligatory to go to a protected area. 

Except in cases where this would cause harm, such as elderly people and small children who may be frightened in the middle of the night, where there is concern that they might be harmed.
