The Israeli Air Force commander stated that the troops are at maximum combat readiness due to the increased tension on the Lebanese-Israeli border. He stressed that all the capabilities of the Air Force are activated and prepared for any turn of events. The most appropriate action plan will be chosen in accordance with the development of the situation.
Amid rocket attacks on northern Israel from Lebanon, Hezbollah fired about 100 rockets into Israeli territory in a few hours. The rockets caused material damage, set forests on fire, and caused no casualties. The Israeli military destroyed about 180 targets in Lebanon, including more than a thousand missile silos.
The IDF expects continued shelling from Lebanon and a possible declaration of a special situation in the Haifa area and northern Israel. Not only aviation, but also artillery is involved in the operation to destroy targets in Lebanon.
