A number of Islamic Jihad terrorists were preparing to launch more rockets from Gaza toward Israeli civilians. We targeted them before they could.
0 IDF soldiers tested positive for COVID-19 today.
We just identified an armed terrorist from #Gaza approaching the security fence with #Israel. The terrorist hurled several grenades at IDF soldiers. The troops charged and stopped the terrorist.
This video was taken in Nablus. When we let terrorists take over education, this is the result:
We have started deploying highly-sophisticated technical infrastructure along Israel’s border with Lebanon. These sensors will identify and prevent underground construction of attack tunnels into #Israel by the Hezbollah terror organization in #Lebanon.
Unbreakable alliance. Enduring friendship. Unwavering bond. Happy #4thofJuly to all those dedicated to defending freedom.
Imagine that a terrorist who belongs to an organization whose mission was to kill you and your family, was minutes away from your home. Today, a Hamas terrorist broke through the Gaza border fence into Israel. Our troops stopped him before he could reach Israeli families.
On #InternationalWomensDay, thank the important women in your life

There’s something happening in Israel right now. Volume up.
Ori is a blind officer in the Israeli Air Force. You should take a minute to hear her incredible story:
Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, #WeRemember so that #NeverAgain means never again.
We identified an attempted sniper attack from #Syria toward the Golan Heights in northern #Israel. In response, our soldiers just targeted the vehicle involved in the attempted attack.
Following the 2nd rocket fired by terrorists from Gaza, our fighter jets struck a Hamas military post and a machine gun which was used to fire toward Israel. We will not tolerate terrorist activities from Gaza.
🛫 The Israeli Air Force flew the British skies alongside the @RoyalAirForce 🇬🇧 as part of “Cobra Warrior”, a historic exercise together with 🇩🇪 & 🇮🇹. Together, we are strong. Together, we soar.
These soldiers carry 2 weapons: A firearm to fulfil a dangerous mission & a camera to share the truth. In a time when disinformation moves fast, combat cameramen — & now for the 1st time ever — cameraWOMEN must get the truth out even faster... & that's exactly what they’ll do.
Jewish soldiers are celebrating the joyous holiday of Simchat Torah today. This day marks the beginning of the annual cycle of weekly Torah readings and emphasizes the importance of keeping the Jewish tradition alive. Happy Simchat Torah from the IDF!
Staff Sgt. Natan Fitoussi, 20, was tragically killed last night by IDF fire near the Judea and Samaria security barrier. We express our deepest condolences to his family and will continue to support them.
We remember.
Hamas' goal this weekend is clear. Hear them in their own words. #StopHamas
OPERATIONAL UPDATE: Last night our soldiers caught a Palestinian from Gaza that crossed into Israel carrying a grenade, he was a few hundred yards away from Israeli communities. That is what the IDF will be preventing today at the #Gaza border.
How do you take over a ship that’s been hijacked? A) parachute from a plane B) rappel from a helicopter C) climb aboard from sea D) all of the above Watch how the Israeli Naval Commando & @USNavy Special Forces did it in our recent joint exercise “Noble Rose”:
Our airforce just struck several Hamas terror targets in Gaza. If Hamas think that we’ll sit idly by as their rocket fire, explosives, and breaches of Israel’s border fence threaten the lives of Israeli civilians - they’re wrong.
