The Israeli Air Force just targeted 3 Islamic Jihad terrorists who fired rockets from #Gaza at Israeli civilians earlier today.
Terror target civilians.
Israel targets terror.

Happy Independence Day to the people of Brazil from the IDF!
Nós do IDF desejamos um feliz Dia da Independência para todos os brasileiros!
🇮🇱🇧🇷

One of the 100s of rockets that were just fired from Gaza toward Tel Aviv and central Israel exploded on a civilian bus.
Hamas’ intentions are clear: kill Israeli civilians.
We won’t stand by and let this happen.
54
The last 48 hours in Israel:
55
The Iron Dome Aerial Defense System just intercepted a Hamas UAV that crossed from Gaza into Israel.
We will not tolerate any violation of Israeli sovereignty.
56
3 women. 3 faiths. 1 uniform.
A Muslim, a Jew, and a Christian—all serving together in the IDF.
This is the real story of Israel.
57
There’s only one right answer.

The last 24 hours in Israel:

Our soldiers wish a very happy #IndiaIndependenceDay to all of our friends in India!
स्वतंत्रता दिवस की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएँ।
60
Our aid mission to Brazil has come to an end, and our soldiers will soon be heading home to Israel.
Brazil, we are proud to have been by your side. #IDFinBrazil 🇧🇷🇮🇱
61
The Iron Dome Aerial Defense System has one purpose—to intercept rockets mid-air before they can kill Israeli civilians.
We will not apologize for saving lives.
62
Take a look at our Iron Dome in action.
Hamas fired a barrage of rockets into central & southern Israel tonight. With our Iron Dome Aerial Defense System operators in action, these systems help keep Israel's skies safe.
63
Will the @UN remember today that if they lived in Israel, 70% of their friends and family would be running to bomb shelters too?
64
Our fighter jets have begun striking Islamic Jihad terror targets in Gaza.
#JiHadEnough
65
At 2AM last night, a Hamas terrorist—armed with a Kalashnikov and grenades—infiltrated into Israel from Gaza and tried to carry out an attack in an Israeli community a mile away.
Emphasis on the "tried".
We neutralized the terrorist.
66
Hamas and PIJ have fired 2968 rockets at Israel in the past week. 439 of those rockets misfired and crashed into Gaza, causing around 20 Palestinian casualties.
That's 15% of their launches.
Think of it this way: About 1 in 7 rockets that Hamas fires—it fires at its own people.
67
We are currently striking Islamic Jihad terror targets in #Gaza.
68
In response to the 2,000+ rockets fired from Gaza toward Israel, tonight we struck:
🔺a military intelligence site
🔺rocket launch sites
🔺surface-to-surface rocket launch sites
🔺2 terrorist squads
Hamas is paying the price for its terror.
69
Under the guidance of the @Israel_MOD and @IsraelMFA, Israel has offered to send humanitarian & medical assistance to Lebanon via security and international channels.
This is the time to transcend conflict.
70
We are currently striking Hamas terror targets in Gaza. Details to follow.
71
We tried to tweet about sirens sounding in Beersheba but Twitter wouldn’t let us.
We know it’s repetitive—but that’s the reality for Israelis all over the country.
72
Not 1.
Not 2.
Not 3.
4,000 rockets were fired from Gaza toward Israel in the last 10 days.
We will continue to defend Israel.
73
Our jets and aircraft just struck a number of Hamas launch sites and observation posts in Gaza.
74
In the last 3 days
Hamas has fired 1,500+ rockets
from Gaza all the way into Israel,
terrorizing civilians as far as 90 miles away.
Hamas, expect a response.
75
WATCH as a Hamas rocket aimed at Israel misfires and falls back into Gaza.
But this isn't the 1st time—Hamas misfired 350 rockets in the last 3 days.
These rockets result in the deaths of innocent Gazan civilians.
It's time for the world to hold Hamas accountable.
