The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have affirmed their high preparedness in attack and defense across all sectors following a significant airstrike in Beirut targeting Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. The IDF Chief of Staff, Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, conducted a situational assessment with the General Staff Forum after the attack on the Hezbollah headquarters, emphasizing the military's readiness.
Recent intense Israeli airstrikes have been directed at the militant group in Lebanon, resulting in a tragic toll on civilians. Monday marked the deadliest day for the country in two decades, with over 500 individuals, including women and children, losing their lives, and more than 1,800 others sustaining injuries.
Israel's offensive operations have primarily concentrated on southern Lebanon, where Hezbollah holds significant influence. Additionally, two airstrikes were carried out in the Harbata plain, located in the Baalbek district in northern Lebanon.
