Israel has launched a massive preemptive strike against multiple Hezbollah targets late tonight in southern Lebanon.
“In a self-defense act to remove these threats, the IDF is striking terror targets in Lebanon, from which Hezbollah was planning to launch their attacks on Israeli civilians,” IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said.
The United States was informed prior to the attacks.
Following Israeli Air Force fighter jet strikes, and “in accordance with the IDF Home Front Command’s situational assessment, life-saving guidelines for the public in certain areas of Israel will be published,” Hagari said.
“We are operating in self defense from Hezbollah — and any other enemy that joins in their attacks against us — and we are ready to do everything we need to defend the people of Israel,” Hagari said.
