NOW: Heavy barrage of rockets fired from #Gaza at #Israel.
The IDF has nearly finished building a security barrier on Israel’s northern frontier with Lebanon. Here’s why:
Overnight, 2 IDF officers were killed during a security patrol near an IDF base in the Jordan Valley. The officers were misidentified & mistakenly killed by IDF fire. The families of the officers were notified. We send our heartfelt condolences & will continue to support them.
For months, Gazans have been launching arson balloons at Israel, burning more than 8K acres of Israeli land, killing 100s of animals, & endangering 1000s of people. Moments ago, terrorists launched arson balloons from Gaza into Israel. The Israeli Air Force fired towards them.
3 mortar shells were just fired from #Gaza into #Israel. The Iron Dome intercepted 1 mortar mid-air.
Remembering the Past, Shaping the Future. The 1st ever joint exercise between the Israeli Air Force & @Team_Luftwaffe in Germany begins this week and will include a historic joint flyby above the Dachau concentration camp & the site of the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre. 🇮🇱🇩🇪
Look at this picture closely: What you see are 2 Molotov cocktails & an improvised explosive device. 4 terrorists intended to use these weapons for terror. They were just apprehend by IDF troops close to the city of Nablus before they could carry out the attack.
🔥 'CHARIOTS OF FIRE'🔥 We have just begun our largest military exercise in decades. Soldiers from every part of the IDF will train together over the next month to increase our defensive readiness and preparedness—on land, in the air, at sea and in cyberspace.
🚨 Sirens sounding in southern Israel 🚨
Earlier today an attempted stabbing attack was thwarted south of Nablus. A civilian neutralized the assailant. No injuries were reported.
We think the @UN forgot some recommendations in its report on the Gaza riots... @UN_HRC
🚨 Air-raid sirens are sounding in southern Israel 🚨
IDF International Spokesperson Lt. Col. Richard Hecht with an update on the current situation regarding the Islamic Jihad in Gaza:
3 rockets were just fired from #Gaza into #Israel. The Iron Dome Aerial Defense System intercepted 2 rockets mid-air.
#CharlesAznavour, the “French Sinatra,” died today. His music and strong bond with Israel and the Jewish people touched the lives of many. May his memory be a blessing.
While the Iranian regime pumps billions of dollars into its terrorist proxies across the Middle East, Iranian people at home—like this family in Ahvaz—have no water to drink. The priorities of this dangerous regime are very clear.
BREAKING: A stabbing attempt just occurred in Gitai Avisar Junction, south of Nablus. The assailant has been neutralized. No IDF casualties.
Last night, this Israeli mother had 60 seconds to save her 3 children, before this happened...
We found 3 locations where our security fence along the Blue Line with #Lebanon was damaged tonight. We can confirm that no infiltration from Lebanon into Israel occurred. This is a severe event. We hold the Lebanese government responsible for actions from its territory.
ATTACK THWARTED: A terrorist attempted to infiltrate the home of an employee of Sde Efraim farm, south of Qalqilya. Another employee who was present at the scene fired & neutralized the suspect. We are conducting searches in the area.
🐢WATCH: Look at what this Israeli firefighter found among the devastation caused by the arson balloons that Hamas launches from Gaza into Israel. 8,000+ acres burnt, 1000s of animals killed - Hamas must be held accountable. @Greenpeace @peta
By firing towards Israeli civilians, Iran once again proved that it is attempting to entrench itself in Syria, endangering the State of Israel & regional stability. We will continue operating determinedly to thwart these attempts.
Terrorists in Gaza just fired 2 rockets toward Israeli civilians. 1 of the rockets was intercepted by the IDF Aerial Defense Array.
Hey @SkyNews, we don't mean to do your job, but we have some news you should have covered:
An Israeli father & his 2 children were seriously injured when a bomb was detonated while they were at a natural spring together near the community of Dolev this morning. We are searching for the terrorist responsible for this heinous terror attack.
