Israel attacks targets in Lebanon to thwart Hezbollah’s prepared strikes: IDF

“We are removing threats against the Israeli home front,” IDF Spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said at a press briefing. “Dozens of [Israeli Air Force] jets are currently striking targets in various locations in southern Lebanon. We are continuing to remove threats, and to intensively strike against the Hezbollah terrorist organization.”

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz on Sunday morning called on dozens of his foreign counterparts around the world to support Israel after the country attacked Hezbollah to thwart attacks against the Jewish State.

The minister stressed that Israel is actingto protect its citizens and territory against “the axis of evil led by Iran, which has a declared goal of bringing about Israel’s destruction,” according to the Israeli government. Katz said Israel does not want an all-out war.

“Hezbollah has just launched over 150 projectiles from Lebanon toward Israeli territory. We target terrorist infrastructure, they target civilians,” the IDF wrote on social media Sunday morning.
